Upgrade to ARC Pro
Experience early access to the latest features and updates. You'll have everything that is needed to unleash your robot's potential.
Yes its is a PIC microcontroller that is called EZ-B
For the Robosapien click here for tutorial
For another robot you need to add a motor controller like a H bridge such as a Sabertooth board. Or even easier use modified servos to drive the wheels of something they connect directly to the EZ-B board.
As an example each project in ARC can have one movement control which then controls the robots movement and interfaces with any other control you might add to your ARC project. So if you configured a movement control for your robot or Robosapien then you could simply add a Joystick or Wii remote control and that will control your robot without doing anything else. Thats the genius of ARC and the EZ-B board.
You will have to able to do some simple soldering and understand some basic concepts and you'll be fine
Perhaps your teacher should look on this site?
Pleased you have the kit thats a good start
So it doesnt need to hack you just connect the power or your ez-b to your robot on/of button and another wire for your cam and the joystick does it connect by it self or you need to do something for that
As I said follow the tutorials
But on the robosapien you have also 7 motors but you need only connect the power to the ez-b controller and the IR sensor to the port D0 D1 but how do you connect the camera
And i wanted to ask do have this product in stock because my friend wanted to buy one also
if you can help thanks
@wajih_sethi Welcome
The camera is wireless and does not require a connection - unless you wish to provide direct power to the camera instead of using the internal batteries.
Here is a link with a tutorial video: https://synthiam.com/Robots/RoboSapien
And yes, there are plenty of EZ-Robot Complete Kits in stock
Enjoy
Hey DJ thanks for your replay
And the servo motor where do you connect it because you use the power on the controller and the IR SENSOr on the ports D0 and D1 and where to connect the servo motor
Hello Sethi, please follow the tutorial section on our website. The EZ-B Controller has 20 digital ports and 8 analog ports. The 20 digital ports can automatically control servos, serial devices, etc.. It's magic, really
