Virtual Desktops In The Latest Ver

I gotta tell ya; I'm really liking these Virtual Desktops and the ability to add our own wallpaper. What a class act DJ and his team are!

Help With First Purchase

Hi, I've been searching for the best robot buiding kits for a while now, and came across EZ Robot. Just have a few questions that some of you might be able to answer. Is EZ robot a lot more advanced than using Ego Mindstorms EV3 ? As I was thinking about getting EV3 to get the hang of putting robots together. (or would I be better going straight...

Ez_B.Roboquad.Roboquadcmdenum.Head_Up

When I execute this command or any other commands in the ARC the roboquad responds appropriately. I am executing this enum or any other and it does not appear to respond. Any ideas? Private Sub EzB_Connect1_OnConnection() Handles EzB_Connect1.OnConnection Timer1.Interval = 250 Timer1.Start() End Sub Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object,...

Missing The Original Robots

I think it's terrific what DJ has achieved and really believe he'll make robots accessible to a bigger audience. What I do miss though is all of those great, hacked robots on the website. It's a little sad that they have been relegated to the back pages. For me, the pure creativeness of solving all those problems when hacking a robot and bringing...

Connecting An Lcd Screen To Ez-B

I found an LCD screen that has 4 ports, 2 being 5v and gnd; the others being called SDA and SCL. The LCD screen has 4 lines that can be written, my main goal is to set up the LCD screen so that when my rover 5 drives in different directions it is written on the screen. Also if read the forum before this one my rover 5 is going to go into harmful...

Long Range Camera B/C Xbee's Long Range

Yes it is me again, posting about the XBee and camera connection. If you don't already know my issue you can see here. I thought I was just going to use that jpg camera to take pictures and use them to make video for ARC Software. But I found a much more efficient way to send video feed from long distances, if you watch this video here. Although...

Robot Vs. Robot

Has anyone here thought of building a pair of robots that hunt each other? Maybe hack some Laser Tag toys and mount them on the bots (think tank style turrets) so they can score points against each other? They could prowl the house searching for each other to do battle. There would need to be some clever rules to this type of action so they don't...

Remotely Turning On Ez-B

I am curious if there is anyway to use some sort of remotely controlled power switch such as IR, so i can turn on my EZ-B by remote. Since my robot will be in an enclosed box i need some way of turning it on without breaking the clear box every time and not leaving it on to kill the batteries. Are there any ways of doing this? I don't have any...
