Johnny Five Community Project
Hello, I brought this up under Jeremie's thread originally; I think it would be neat to do a community J5 project. I'm interested in building a smaller scale (1-2ft tall) J5 themed robot with as much function and appearance as possible. I'm not focused on a 100% screen accurate version as a must have goal. In other words, I have the mind set that...

So maybe the newer 20fps...

To turn the fortune teller on, we have to open the cabinet, start the computer, go to ARC, make the connection, etc. then lock it up again. Few know how to...
