Ipad To Windows Video

It seems to me if it an iPhone can be made into a wireless webcam, it should be easy to bring it into ezb as a robot camera. This would make it possible to use my extra iPhones for camera's. I am not...

Servo Position

Hi all! I have two kind of servos. Some are the default ez-robot servos and some MG996R. As you can see at the video, the ez-robot servo can make full 180 degree movement instead MG996R that it's movement is small. How can i resolve this issue?
question

Stand Alone Operation?

I am a potential new customer looking to understand the EZ-Robot developer's kit. My question is: Is the kit capable of stand alone operation? Or, will my robot require wired/wireless tethering to a host computer to do everything? Specifically interested in the speech recognition functions.

30A H-Bridge And Brain

Hi all, I was wondering if this motor controller could be connected to the EZ Robot system for running 12V motors (guess I need a seperate battery for that). I used the 2.5A H-bridge before which worked nicely for a small motor. https://www.servocity.com/roboclaw-2x30a-motor-controller#.V0d3FZMrKu0 many thanks Johan

Voice Command And Recognition

When I say something the $ValSpeech variable is assigned the right value, but it will jump to the else every time. When I click "Hello" or "Bye" from the Run screen, the robot will say the proper command. Here...

Micro Controller False Signals

My Robot is repeating text to speech over and over intermittently. It is also starting moving forward on its own without a command being sent. Sometimes it repeats other servo commands more than once without telling it to. It is like it has a mind of its own. I may be developing an AI robot without knowing it. I am wondering what if could be...

How Do I Know When My Battery Is Below 6.6V?

The manual says "Over discharge (letting the battery go below 6.6v) damages the battery by changing the chemistry and it becomes puffy (gassy). " How do I know the battery is below 6.6V? As soon as it says "battery low" I turn off the robot and charge it. I never have the robot on when charging. These batteries seem very...
