Upgrade to ARC Pro
Your robot can be more than a simple automated machine with the power of ARC Pro!
P.s. Would have said hot girls too... But wasn't sure if you're married or had a significant other or not...
All I can say is THANK YOU.
Your work is AMAZING and APPRECIATED!

I wrote this code (Thanks Ez-face) if someone want to try object recognition.
Code:
Question : how to stop smiley into code ?
That said, they have a web developer on board now working her magic so it may be fixed shortly.
Thanks again.
Wakeup On Lan
Wakeup On Ring
Wakeup On Alarm
Pressing the power button
Pressing a key on the keyboard (if enabled)
Moving/clicking the mouse (if enabled)
You could build a simple circuit to add in a wakeup button to the robot which emulates a push of the power button but to be honest the simplest method is WOL.
There are a whole range of apps for mobile devices (Android and iOS) for WOL that can send the magic packet to the PC to wake it. Some will even do this automatically when the device is connected to WiFi (i.e. you walk in the house and the robot turns on).
You could also set it to wakeup on alarm, have the RTC wake up every 30 minutes or hour etc. have ARC then check a bunch of parameters when it's woken up, if they are not met then it goes back to sleep. It's a slight drain on the battery but timing it properly would make the drain unimportant.
