Hey DJ, Seems the forum is pretty slow as we are starting to enjoy summer and forge out into a maskless world. Been working on any new cool Synthiam things? Im looking for inspiration. Any new features or breakthroughs youre investigating? Seems like even feature requests are drying up.

101 Level Questions On Why My Laptop Netcam Doesnt Work

Im all stoked to try the Yolo stuff but I can not get my laptop camera to be be recognized. There is an option to set it and I do but pushing the button yields no results. Is there a simple setting I may be missing. It works for zoom and gaming and other stuff so I know it is not a camera problem. Any bone head stuff I may be missing?

What Is The Best Hardware For Synthiam Now?

I have been rethinking this company as they evolve. I see a trend to supporting other hardware platforms which is awesome. I always just associated the software with the EZB project. So as the software morphs and has been doing, what is the best optimum hardware to run it on now? Is it still EZB or Raspberry Pi, or Arduino, or whatever? What if I...

Where Are The A.I. And Chat Bot Experts?

So there are a few AI and chatbot plugins for EZR. They are pretty cool and offer a couple of options for interacting with the bot. For my own purposes an AI presence is paramount for my EZR experience. Probably for a lot of you as well. Making a chunk of plastic and electrons appear alive is pretty cool. So does anyone have any progress to share...
question

Is Bing Speech Rec Still Free?

I received an email saying my azure account has been cancelled unless I pay after the trial period has ended. The plugin has stopped working for me. I thought this was a free service if you kept under a cap or something which I definitely have. Anyone else experiencing this?

Can Pandorabot Be Upgraded To Aiml 2.0?

I have been using the Pandorabot plugin with some success. It is dated though and based on the old Alicebot I believe which is about 15 years old by the looks of the files it accesses. The site has moved on and we are using a backdoor to access now. They have implemented AIML 2.0 which is greatly superior and the website interface has been...

Bing Speech Recognition Control Moves To Desktop 2 And Cant Be Moved

My Bing speech recognition control sometimes moves to the second desktop and I can not move it from there. I am right clicking on the window for the option but it does not appear once the control is on the second desktop. I can move all other controls as normal. Is this a bug? I believe it happened with the last update but not sure.
question

How Do I Set Servo Limits

Hi, How can I set the limits for a set of servos prior to the rest of the system initializing? While using the autoposition window it initializes with the servos set to 90 deg. That breaks some servos for me. So I created a frame called rest which I try to set first. Even then, I can move the servos beyond their limits in the autoposition window...

Perrys VR Underwater Drone

I was thinking about the next killer app for a robot we all could work on. We identified the rhoomba as a success because it is solving a problem. I would argue that drones are in that same category.
