Servo Tracking

Hey guys, so my son and I are having a great time with our little "rolli" robot. Yesterday, we decided to start experimenting with the tracking feature. We've watched all of the related tutorials we can find, and it seems like a pretty strait forward thing, but we cannot get our little guy to track. When we enable servo tracking, and use...

Send Tweets To Robot That Execute Code/Actions

Hello! I don't think this will be unique, but I can't find an answer. I've seen how you can have your ez-robot send tweets, but is there a way to receive tweets?

Sally, Version 4 Build

OK, I have put together Sally again. I will use the Version 4. This is my last and final effort to finish Sally. After that, I will be out of parts. It has been a wonderful journey and it is coming to an end. I have had a lot of fun along the way. If I succeed on this build, I will extend the fun a little longer. I will make comments along my pit...

Vex Optical Shaft Encoder With A Kangaroo Board

Tonight I installed the vex shaft optical encoders on the inside shaft the wheels go on. I had to drill out the encoder wheel to fit the shaft and disassembled the encoder wheel and optics to mount on the metal gearbox, I also had to cut back the green plastic fins so it did not catch the encoder optics.
