Any Way To Have 8 X 8 RGB Blink When There Is Audio?

Hello Everyone, my first time here, I just started into robotics. I am looking to have the 8 X 8 RGB blink when my robot talks. I have tried scripts I found in the community on here, but since it doesn't connect to a digital port they do not work. I tried editing some of the scripts to use a sound servo to enable RGB animator script, but it still...

Ipad (8Th Generation) Ios 14.2 Not Launching ARC App

Hi,  I have purchased new iPads for each of my JD robots.

Detailed Explanation Of BLOCKLY Commands

Hi - short question: Is there a glossary for BLOCKLY commands ? Most are easy to identify, but e.g. what is the difference between the ADC command and the ADC12 command ? A survey for all BLOCKLY commands would be very helpful. Earlier I was programming OZOBOT EVOs, using OZOBLOCKLY and - I must admit - that they are offering a very good online...

EZ-Robot HDD Servo Mount Size

I know the EZ-Robot HDD servo is sold by EZ-Robot and not Synthiam. Also sorry for the misguided post category. However I know there are many people on this forum that have the answer to this question. I'm hoping for a quick answer as I need to plan parts and expenses of a project.  Are the mounting holes on the EZ-Robot HDD Servo the same as a...
