Since my robot is running on a Raspberry Pi, which is now supported by ARC, I decided to evolve my current project K[8] into a new one called ZOE... First steps will creating a new servo setup which supports Dynamixel Servos, and a new Conceptual design!!

This is the thread for my current project Dewy. He is a tall robot that uses RAD parts and models a omnibot in a way....

Apologies if this is too long. My .bot Wilber Wilber was constructed from a Lego Mindstorm EV3 kit. The self-balancing...
R2D2's Rsp Robot
Hi all! Im excited to share this project with you, this is the robot RSP, I bought my second ez-b (v3) and having...
Yes, these are crazy times...but lets make the best of it!! Stay safe and healthy!!
How do you get Unity to work with a real robot? My robot Dave wants Unity and VR controls.
Hey, I am also still working on it...there is a ton of possibilities!!
But there is no template, that is ready to use. So if you are having a VR device, maybe start with a simple scene just to understand how the whole setup works...I can take you from there!
Just remember that in order to do this, you need the robots .stl files!!
So having some time to spend, I decided to dive a bit deeper into VR...not yet directly related to robotics, but I am already planning use a Mixed Reality Scenario like this one in the future for ZOE!!
Its also a fun way to spend my time, since my flight was canceled...so I am having a VR vacation instead!!
Such a cute island you have. Sadly I still have to go to work everyday. Second shift gets 2 paid weeks off. I have been having a blast with VR in Unity. I would love to control my robots with my Rift S. I made my own 3d printed robot Dave, so I do have the STL files. I also have Dave in Unity running and jumping and having fun.
Hey, all of this sounds very good...it should be fairly easy to set up your robot! It might take a little time to tweak it all, so maybe just hit me up using the Contact Form on ZOEs website?
Then we can get things going, while not spamming the thread with all those finicky details...
zoe.build.log
@Mickey666Maus You would not be spamming this thread, finicky details are what we need, there is little action on Synthiam lately and this would be a pleasant addition, You think that more members are stuck at home would have at least more things to talk about, but that is not the case. I will be starting my robot projects all over again, as soon as ARC leaves Bata. looking for a 3d Printer robot project to fill the time. no one is willing to give up their .STL files.
If anyone is interested in building a ZOE, I could make a Github repo with all the .stl files... Just remember that I am using those Lewansoul LX16-A servos, you might want to check if they are available! You would need 14 servos for the build...
Also the head is using the AIY Vision Kit from Google, but the robot does not loose much functionality when you'll just use a Raspberry Pi Zero...
Just let me know guys!!
