Ez_B Namespace In New C++ Project

I am having some trouble getting visual studio (vs2013) to recognize the EZ_B namespace in a new c++ project. It works fine in the example project from the SDK though. However, because of other components (specifcally YARP) I need to compile using CMake. My CMakeLists.txt looks like this: CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8.9) SET(PROJECTNAME ez)...

Maybe A Dumb Question - Make Bigger Jd

So even though I barely even began, I have plans for this little guy and wondered whether instead of the leg extensions, one could add one more servo to each leg and arm and make JD a bit bigger with more articulation. Is the EVB4 capable of adding four more servos to control walking or is this a thoroughly stupid Idea using too much of the evb...

Auto-Download Feature

JD, First, thank you for your previous help with plugins. I have already made a few to help teach some of the introductory CTS courses.

I started to look into 3D printers, but with the huge number out there I wanted to see the opinions of those whom may have already gotten and used their printers for a while. I continue to fall back on the da vinci 1.0 or 1.0 pro but shipping to Canada...

Non Existent Customer Support For A Newbie

Although my issue of the 300mv imbalanced battery issue is not a new topic, it happened to me after the first use only and there seems to be no customer service email link to address what is likely a defective battery or unit. I have followed all the recommendations but the charger keeps blinking 6 times red with one second pause. I only used the...

Hello, need to order another ezb4 controller. If I order this today does it come with the "new" comm board or is this still a future upgrade? Thanks Chris
