Help With Lcd Display Scripts

I would be grateful for some help with a couple of scripts. It is for a LCD05 16x2 display connected to i2c and can display text no problem, but I want to be able to display the live time and date but got no idea of how to write the scripts, although I have tried and failed. I did ask something similar in another post regarding voltage, but didn't...

How Can Two Commands Be Run At The Same Time?

I am trying to get two commands to run at the same time ( without success ). For example: Left(1,2000) ControlCommand("Auto Position", AutoPositionFrame, "Stretch Left", 10,1,1) The program runs the first line, once that is completed then the next line runs.

Galapagos Bot

Hbridge

I am relatively new to robotics, so here goes a dumb question. Since EzB can drive servos, what is the advantage or reason for using an Hbridge? Does it drive the same kind of servos or does it drive bigger servos? Thanks.

Brookstone Rover And Matlab

Hey All, I'm not quite sure where this post should be, but I believe this topic area will give me the best bet at finding an answer. I'm currently trying to control the Brookstone Rover's (v. 1.0) from MATLAB and I'm completely lost. I've a small fleet of these robots (they're cheap!) and I'd like to control them from within MATLAB using a...
