Triggering UART At Travel Milestones
Hello @Athena, I'm working on a project using an Arduino Mega 2560 to control stepper motors and need help with setting up recurring events that trigger at specific points during the movement. Specifically, I want to send a signal when the motors have traveled 33% and 66% of the total path endpoint distance. Here's a code snippet representing the...

Seeking Donations For Robotics Education
Hello, Robot Builders, I recently met a retired teacher from the Netherlands who is interested in teaching children about EZ-Robotics. To support his initiative, as he is funding it himself, I've decided to offer my assistance. I've assembled some JD Humanoids using leftover parts I had available. You can see one of them in action here: YouTube...

Hi @Athena, I have a question about powering the Sharp IR Distance Measuring Sensor #GP2Y0A02YK0F, which I am using in my rover project. I've been experimenting with this sensor, and it has worked very well for object detection when powered with 5V DC. During my tests, I found that for specific tasks, the sensor needs to detect a reflector instead...

Fitting Alternative Battery For Robots
I have a question regarding batteries for my JD Humanoid or AdventureBot, which typically uses a LiPo 1300mAh 2S 25C battery with dimensions of 70x35x10 mm. I found an alternative battery online that appears similar: a LiPo 1300mAh 2S 30C with dimensions of 70x34x14 mm. My question is, would this alternative battery fit in EZ-Robot products? Here...
