Inmoov Servos

I am moving away from MRL to EZB for my Inmoov. I have the entire robot wit all the arduinos etc working at a basic level. I seem to be constantly stuck with too many things with MRL.

At the time I was just setting up, so I had one HD servo plugged into D0 but nothing...

In the sketch there is a line that should read; #include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h> I...

Ez-B V3

Hello, I bought the EZ-b robot kit many moons ago (approx 5yrs), The v3, yes I know it's discontinued ?? Life has been chaotic and my robot project has been slow in the making.

Ezb Formula Race Car?

We Made The Local Paper

Just my small town paper (population 130k - ish) but a pretty good article. And I made sure that EZ-Robot was mentioned. iRobot in my local paper

Virtual Programming

We would really like the ability to program a virtual JD robot so that we can preview the behaviours prior to connecting to the robot. This would enable a whole class to participate. While we can buy 10 robots, we cannot get enough to satisfy the 30+ kids working in pairs.
