Suggestion - Add Custom Events System

In addition to allowing a joystick button run a script, why not let it trigger a custom event of any name. If the joystick moves left, the user could say this action triggers "port-side" or whatever they want to call that. You could then setup on or more listeners (on say an h-bridge movement control AND servo moving robot head) to listen...

Recognition While Speaking

Is there any way to know if the ezB Controller is speaking so I can stop recognition while it is speaking? Thanks

Need A Ez Script Hint

Hi all, I'm having a centering issue. I'm trying to have the waist of my B9 robot turn left, right and then go to center. Right now I have 3 scripts, one for each movement (left, right and center).

Keyboard Control Needs Key Up Event

It would be really nice if the keyboard control had a key up event. Also, how would one indicate the cursor keys for this control? Code hinting only works in the code edit dialog window, not sure why.

When this occurred, the left / right motor was acting like the voltage was very low as it...

Pc For Everything

Hi. If I'm reading things correctly, you need a constant connection from EZ B board to the PC for things like speech recognition. Is this true for everything? Specificially, how about collision avoidance? If that's the case, then you'd really need to tote around a laptop or possibly integrate one into your robot. Would it be possible to have future...
