Next version 'Nixie' is coming soon !

Help us to get ready with MyRobotLab version Nixie: try it !

Help ! strange things again about servo moves

Before to call an exorcist I will ask you :

I have sometime problems about no worky commands ( rest() moveTo() or autodetach if velocity =-1 )
Problems ocure often at startup.

This is the smallest thing I can use to isolate. When I launch rest() , slider in swing go to the asked position, but no action on servo or virtual servo. ( like the servo is disabled, but servo is electrised)
and if I move the slider a little degree, servo go to good position.

Serial com

This is my test to check if serial communication work:

I use 3 arduinos nano with MrlComm inside. I connect each of them on serial1, serial2 and serial3 on the mega left or right. I Connect one servo on all nano.

With MyRobotLab, I move 3 servo.

With MrlComm 55, After few minutes, MrlComm 55 break the communication, doesn't work.

With MrlComm 41, i have no problem, the test work all the time. This is called reliability.

So, moz4r, do this test and give your result !!

Inmoov BOM update / new skeleton parts

pushed 2 new things inside Inmoov service :
- rollneck servo Inside head ( usefull to use rollneck+neck+rothead into ik+tracking+vinmoov later )
- Eyelids separated & optional skeleton part
 
I need some confirmation about default pin to use
- hacked rollneck : pin 30 - left
- eyelidsLeft( or both eyes default ) pin 29 - right
- eyelidsRight pin 30 - right
 
Added an option to change hardcoded pins :
ex : i01.startHead(port,12,13,22,24,26,30)

Bing speech recognition

Hi,

What do you think for Microsoft Bing speech recognition ? It is similar about google api but:

Google: 50 requests by day and now micro of kinect not supported

Microsoft: 5000 requests by month and i think kinect is OK

May be i can try to make a new service ?

Interface Agreement

Hi,
 
I'd like to get some input on this interface and a little feedback on how to make it stronger or more clear.
 
 
Kwatters said the pinEnable(String pin) method in Arduino is confusing. 

Text to speech

Can I use the Ryan.exe from Acapella with "Myrobotlab"?

I purchases the Ryan voice for $35. Is there a way to import a text to speech voice into MRL?

I also bought the "textaloud" program.

Micro array, kinect

Hi,

The micro array of the kinect doesn't work with webkitrecognition of google.

May be chrome problem ? 

Do you have an idea ?

What is the best micro for Inmoov for you ?
