Object Character Recognition
Google and Microsoft both have Object Character Recognition (OCR) models available via API. There is a free tier and a paid tier for either. It would be absolutely amazing to have a camera skill that can read text. This could even trigger the translate option or integrate with Chat GPT3. Lots of follow on options if we unlock OCR.

Arduino Mega Firmware
I downloaded the firmware for the Arduino Mega and unzipped it. I double clicked on the EZ- MEGA - V1 but it did not load into my Arduino IDE. It just asked what app I wanted to open it with. The file I downloaded was dated 10/11/2021. If you have any ideas about what I am doing wrong I would appreciate it?

Can I Read The Signal From An RC Receiver?
I would like to read the signal incoming from an RC receiver. How do I do that? Use-case: I drive my robot with radio-control, animations are automatic and controlled by EZ-B. Still want to pass on radio signals to EZ-B to trigger certain animation scripts. How can I read the radio signal I get in the receiver. From a receiver I can steer a servo...

Syncing ARC With USB/Iotinys AFTER External Power Engaged
HIi all! I have a bit of a strange question. I am running an Inmoov off ARC with two IoTinys and an Arduino. I would like to be able to leave for the day, turning off the Inmoov. When I am about 5 minutes from arriving home, I am going to Power the Inmoov using a Wifi On/Off plug which feeds the main Power Supply. I would like the Inmoov to welcome...
