I don't have any yet and it would be good to see and test with out having one or even if you do having to look away to see it
Right now I can play with it but I cant see it do any thing at all when I run it
As for visual display in ARC to show realtime feedback on the matrix, my guess (and be aware it's a guess so may be wrong) is it would use a lot of system resources which is the opposite direction to how ARC has gone since it's simplification of icons etc.
It'll blow the adafruit 8x8 out of the water...
Let's see... a gps module, an accelerometer, a gyro, a compass... maybe a few others
We even made them small enough to be clip'n'play and attach to existing revolution robots. Now we're getting serious!
Fantastic news
I know you're not a fan of wheel encoders (as a navigation system), and I know you have mentioned some sort of indoor nav system previously... Any chance we will see something like this in 2015?

Try it, you wont break it if connected correctly, worst case is the EZ-B may hang on wrong I2C commands.
More to buy in March!
I should have my V4s tomorrow!
Keeps getting better!
