Hello EZ Robot! Meet Dusty, he is a omnibot torso and I currently have the choice of robbie at head or a omnibot done where you can see inside. He will handle a few basic functions and us made more simple than his big brother Jarvis.
- He can vacuum (which is loud) with power brush and impeller
- He can "sweep" nearly silent by running the power brush at a reduced voltage and a small DC blower providing low level auction. 3.dusty will have two germicidal bulbs ,.one facing downward to the floor and another behind intake fans that not only cool electronics but it pulls air through a Honeywell two stage carbon filter. 4.dusty has 4 build in filters foam pre filter , and 3 carbon filters.
- He will have a camera on pan tilt bracket. He will be controlled by Bluetooth or wifi.
- Long runtime , 2 x 12v 7ah batteries.
Any other suggestions guys?

Sudo's Synthiam Humanoid Project
As I said before, Ive been working on a 24 DOF humanoid robot (what i believe to be the most DOF in a EZ-Robot humanoid)...
I want the arms to look like they belong there which is why using 2000 arms would be great. Especially since dusty is so much taller than the original omnibot parts donor lol.
I see what you mean, how about square PVC tubes, though? It will be hard to find the arm parts, there was a time when people offered parts on eBay but the last couple of months I havent seen any single arms on there. you might wanna send this fellow a message: http://omnibot2k.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1 Seems to be very pricy, though! On the other hand, maybe hes got something cheap, since you would take extremly yellow arms anyway... Good luck on finding something....! =)
So apparently these fans are pwm controlled and have the same three prong connector similar to a servo plug. So I'm guessing that means ezb can control speed with pwm.
The XT60 turnigy connectors came in. I have a set of ten to make quick disconnects for the batteries . Motor controller etc.If I recall my PC tech days... the three wire fans only feed back RPM (via the yellow wire) and while they are normally 12v, they will work, albeit slower, on 5v. Typically the fans that had speed control (via the motherboard/BIOS) had a 4th blue wire. That said, much has changed since I did that particular type of tech work for a living
Thanks for the reminder lol. Your absolutely right and I smacked myself in the head on that one. I will run it direct 12v .
My idea is utilize two digital ports. All front bumper switches would be wired in parallel ans same goes for sides and rear bumper. The digital port would read zero or off but if a switch is pressed on any given side the robot knows it made contact with a wall or object (like pets or kids feet etc.) The bumpers would be discrete and have 2 or 3 lever type switches per bumper. This is a safety backup incase radar did not catch the object and avoid it so that no one gets hurt especially the robot. I think this is a simple switch system that will work.
