LD47-Loop Robot Mac OS

I have some problems with my new 27 Imac Mac OS x 10.6.6 and Teamspeak3 client. Headset is a Sennheiser that work together with Speedlink USB Soundcard. Everything works fine but sometimes my voice suddenly sounds like a robot.-Is there a way to stop this? Thanks for help greetings. This guide explains how to get started programming your Orangutan or 3pi Robot in Windows, Linux or Mac OS X. It covers setting up an AVR development environment (Atmel Studio for Windows users), installing the Pololu AVR C/C Library, and setting up the Pololu USB AVR Programmer.

Introduction

Based on Makeblock open platform, mDrawBot is a transformable drawing robot kit that integrates mechanics, electronics, software, and art. It can be assembled into four forms: mScara(Cylindrical Coordinates Robotic Arm), mSpider(Wall-Drawing Machine), mEggBot(Egg-Painting Robot), mCar(Drawing Car). Working with the easy-to-use software mDraw, it presents virtual digital graphics in the real world, exercises your hands-on ability, and achieves the goal of painting on places that seem to be impossible to draw on, like on the desk, ground, the surface of a sphere, etc..

This kit consists of over 60 components from Makeblock, including beams, brackets, motors, etc.. It also comes with a specially-designed software named mDraw to control these robots. Here’s the picture of all the components.

Control

mDraw is the software specially designed for mDrawBot. After installing the mDraw software, you can import images that you want to draw. It is completely compatible with the four forms of mDrawBot and also both the servo mode and laser mode of Makeblock XY Plotter V2.0.

Features of mDraw

  • Support mScara, mSpider, mEggBot, mCar, XY
  • Support both pen drawing and laser engraving
  • Support custom settings of motor direction, drawing range, etc
  • Support saving parameters
  • Support .SVG file
  • Support conversion from BMP to SVG
  • Support zooming, rotating, mirroring, and moving the SVG graphics
  • Support Windows 7 or later, Mac OS X

mDraw is an open source project hosted on Github. Fork it here: https://github.com/Makeblock-official/mDrawBot

Adding Laser Engraver Upgrade Pack (500mW)

Laser Engraver Upgrade Pack can be used withXY Plotter Robot Kit andmDrawBot adding laser engraving function to these 2 robot kits.

**WARNING: As laser energy has higher density, make sure corresponding protection are taken while using. **
– No direct eye-contact with the laser light path;
– DO NOT irradiate others by the laser;
– Keep it away from children and people who are not familiar with laser usage;

Your Design and More

You can also design your own upgrade pack for your mDrawBot. By adding an accelerometer and gyro sensor, it will become a two-wheeled self-balancing vehicle. Add some additional Makeblock mechanical parts and it may be transformed into a XY plotter. The only limit is your imagination.

In a recent move, an ill-famed Mac malware gang has unleashed a new browser hijacker that constantly forces hits to searchlee.com.

Once again, Macs are in the crosshairs of bad actors who keep piggybacking on a surefire web traffic monetization scheme through aggressive redirects. This rising campaign involves a predatory application that takes over a victim’s default browser to push SearchLee, a rogue service mimicking a garden-variety search provider. The resulting page contains nothing but a search box and a few technicalities in the footer such as the privacy policy and terms of use. Although at first blush it doesn’t seem harmful at all, there are pitfalls lying beneath the external normality. First off, you aren’t likely to ever visit searchlee.com unless you test malware like we do, or unless your Mac has been infiltrated by a virus that’s wreaking havoc with all things web surfing.
