EZ-B V3 by EZ-Robot

The EZ-B v3 Bluetooth Robot Controller was introduced in 2011 and discontinued in 2013 with the EZ-B v4. ARC still supports this device. However, documentation to get it connected is difficult to come by.

EZ-Robot Advantages

EZ-B v3 has been designed as all-in-one hardware and software solution for robotics. The circuit board contains a powerful voltage regulator, a Bluetooth antenna module, digital I/O, ADC, servo skills, serial ports, TellyMate interface, and more. You can quickly recognize how the EZ-Robot Project was designed for reusable scalability. Build many DIY Robots with a single EZB Controller by simply moving the board between projects.
