Man, I can't believe how fast you got those changes in! Impressive.
Damm, I decided to take my wife to the movies last night to finally see The Hobbit. I missed the Saturday night update and now I cant claim to be a RoboNerd anymore!
That's the last time I'm taking her out on a Saturday night. eek
Not fair...
I was asleep while your part of the world was awake.... lol
Gutted...
stress
Okay okay... I've never seen so many people want to be nerds before! I guess it's different when it's RoboNerd!
EZ-RoboNerds?

Im EZ I spent the night ripping parts out of old "toys" for future robots Im a nurd and i love it lol
Hello, does the new upgrade enable me to specify multiple colors that I'd like to have tracked? I'm interested in detecting green, yellow, and red to control my robot.
Hi! This is a minor-release. On the first post of this thread will be the list of changes for the release. There is a major release coming next which includes those features in the ARC. Currently, you would have to use the EZ-SDK.
I suspect we will be doing a major release sometime in the next week. Major releases are dependent on testing and delayed on bug fixes.
