Servos Not Responding

I have been using the "Oculus Quest Robot" Skill with an Arduino Uno and a PCA9685 breakout board connected via I2C for a few months now.  Everything had been working great.  I transferred all of my electronics to a new robot platform and now, none of the servos will move.  The PCA9685 board has power, the servo rail on the PCA9685 has...

Coms Port Not Showing When Connecting EZB To Rock Pix

I am trying to connect an EZB to a Rock PiX. For some reason, a Coms port does not show up. When I connect the EZB to my laptop, I do get a Coms port and ARC can connect to it. Looking at Device Manager on the Rock PiX, there is an entry for Other Devices FT232R USB UART. What am I missing here?

I wanted to post what it knew to see if it was in fact true. The AI refused to give any sources so I became even more curious.  The AI said this about Synthiam:...

EZB Leonardo Serial Ports

DJ,  I reviewed your code for the EZ-Genuino_Leonardo.ino and I see you added dummy code for the other serial ports should that code be added to this service also to make it better for the EZB platform?

Meccanoid Development Project

Hi All, I'm a newbie in this community and I've arrived here looking around in the web to find how to upgrade an old Meccanoid bot and make my doughters happy! My idea is: - To change the useless meccabrain with a raspberry pi with a WIFI module and an Arduino MEGA - To add a performing and re-chargeable battery - To add a camera - To add a mic I...
