When Robot Chases The Red Ball, It Turns Right Instead Of Straight.

When robot chases the red ball, it turns right instead of straight. Did Anyone see this happen before. It follows it with the camera just fine.

When I control the robot through the Roomba controller,...

Help With Voice Recognition

Lesson Learned About Gripper

If I would not have been so impatient when I built the arm, I would not have had to do it over. I hot melt glued the arm together instead of silicone. And sometimes servos get hot. It melted the glue and Bang!! The whole gripper came apart. Not only that when I touched the servo, the hot melt glue that was melted got on my hand and burn a water...

How Do I Use Sharp IR Distance Sensor?

OK, I have some standard sharp sensors on the robot both Horz and Vert. I have no servos on them. When I do a scan with the radar, it scans, but it doesn't show the red dots. But, when I hook a Meter or Graph, it sees when I put something in front. But, no red dots. That is weird. The Ping units show the red dots also. Sorry if I did not word this...

Aa Battery Packs Don't Cut For Powering Screwdriver Motors
