For quite a few years, i've been mentioning that I have been working on a positioning system for ez-robots. I guess it's time that i share my tribulation with you, because the trails were far too many
. Should be ready to throw in the manufacturing facility for this summer's scheduled releases

What an AWESOME feature for EZ Robot! This should instill the importance of mathematics to kids.
If I didn't have a large house this would be awesome! If I wanted full home tracking I would have to blow $1500 on IPS boards!
I was wondering if the cameras can be used for standard tracking as well? Not just IPS purposes. Then you could track people throughout the room!
As well, what is the range for this? I would assume 20ft or so for accuracy but what's the exact number?
It never stops surprising me how fast the pace of EZ-Robots development is! This platform is a treasure for all robot builders!
Awesome!
Could you consider another sneak peek in the future, ( if you get the time) of a short navigation script driving thru your office or front entry room? It would be great to see the Ips in action. Going around obstacles would be great.
This is fantastic, something like this would be great for an outdoor robot project to navigate around the house!
It's an "indoor positioning system". It doesn't work outside.
Dj, Just one question, is that a beacon on the top of the bot? or does it see the green color?
Oh i see, well for indoor its fantastic Dj Sures, and thanks for your reply, you and your Omnibot are the reason i'm here. : )
