Mp3 Trigger - Sparkfun

Loaded up some Wall-E sounds onto my MP3 (Sparkfun) Trigger and can't seem to get it to work correctly. I have followed DJ's video on connecting it to the EZ-Board to the tee. I plug it into the EZ-Board, for power only, and try to cycle through the sounds using the button but only get one track (or sound) and it is fuzzy? The files are in the MP3...

Ez Robot Math

Hello Again, Has anyone figured out a way to do simple math with ARC? We have servo position and camera coordinates. We are trying to couple them to derive driving and firing solutions, while scanning the camera. We used to do all of that with a Cortex. It seems pretty simple. Maybe we need to go with a different processor. Any thoughts are...

Ping Radar Running A Script Instead Of Turning Robot?

Would it be resonable to have ARC Execute a Stop command to the movement panel and then run a script if something has tripped the distance trigger? A script could have the robot make a tone with speaker tone or trigger and MP3 with the MP3 Trigger and then it could be programmed to execute a turn or use the ping sensor and ping sensor servo to try...
