Sharp Ir Sensor

Got a question. After getting my Ultrasonic module setup to handle front-end obstacles ok on my 4WD, I thought I would use an extra Sharp IR sensor I had laying around on the back end of my 4WD. Wouldn't want to back my rear into a buzz-saw... The Sharp sensor works as it should on the 3 ADC panels just fine. It also works ok on the Sharp IR...

Rc Tank Conversion

Well, I've finally got the RC tank stripped down to start turning it into a bot. The drive-train of this thing is actually fairly sophisticated. It has separate springs (shocks) for each road wheel! I've stripped out the old RC control board for re-purposing, and there is a huge open space in the hull for the new electronics suite. So far I've...

Suggestion For ARC

DJ, For my latest large robot project I am using a sound card similar to the MP3 but it plays .wav files instead .mp3 files. Rather than ask for a control for this specific hardware, would you consider creating a generic version of the MP3 Trigger control? This universal matrix control would use the same 10x10 array of buttons as the MP3 trigger,...

ARC Script For Pulling Up A Website To View Via Speech Recognition

I'm trying to get Bob to pull up different website I can view via voice command. For example I wanted to view the Weather Radar off Bobs screen. I know how rss works but this time I just want the web site to view (not to be read out). I've looked in examples and the cloud but can't see anything on it - Thanks if anyone can help.
