My first EZ-B Bot....but not my first bot...
The base is a Parallax BOE robot , the body is a LynxMotion torso kit, and the various brackets are from LynxMotion.
Still a work in progress.........

Jeremie's R.O.B. Robotic Operating Buddy
The year was 1985 and the Nintendo company was gearing up to make a huge splash with the resurgence of console gaming...
Thefoolmonty's Joc's Ucontrol Wall-E
Still a work in progress and I have not decided finally on some aspects. While this is basically the same implementation...
DJ's Irobot Roomba Hack
DJ modifies an iRobot Roomba to be wirelessly controlled with the EZ-B. He also adds a webcam and voice recognition!...



Haha he's pretty cool. The distance sensor as eyes is awesome. He has a really intellegent look to him. Kind of know-it-all-ish. He should be Professor Shorty
Shorty is AWSOME! He has some real personality! Do you have any video of Shorty in action? I can't wait to see what you do next.
Great job!!!!!, It reminds me of this movie.....
its just needs that big white mitten
anyone want to guess?
That's a cool bot....I have no idea what movie it would be from.
SHORTY is coming along fine, I'm making him talk and run around but like others I'm going to look into a longer range device for the link...I'm using my desktop right now to interface with SHORTY and it would be a little awkward to run around the house behind SHORTY carrying it.
I think Xbee's are better for me and also I think they were meant to be together.....EZ-B / XBee.
HeartBeeps is the movie?
DING DING DING..... you got it!!!!!... ha ha ha hoot hoot!!
I don't remember seeing it but that's Andy Kaufman & Bernadette Peters
not sure who or what the robot is
LOL
"HeartBeeps!" Gawd. I love bad '80s movies... sigh
As for the smaller robot (via wikipedia) - "...They assemble a small robot, Phil, built out of spare parts, whom they treat as their child..."
I always loved the look of Phil.
Took me forever to figure out where I'd first seen that robot before. Couldn't remember the name of the movie back then. Thank goodness for the Interweb!
