mBlock Communication Extensions

#1

Does anyone know where the info is concerning the “Communication” Extensions in mBlock? I just can’t find a thing. I asked tech support last week and all I got was an abrupt “its for robot to computer communication”- wow thats mighty helpful?

Is it based on BT or wifi? How do you setup the “Communication Extensions”- any examples.

What I would like to do is control the robot via wifi module from the computer as BT and 2.4G have their problems- (I mainly use the Orion boards)

I have been looking into device to device communications using Arduino and xBee shields. Lots of examples on that. It is basically serial com port data read/write. Probably need some coding to get the porting set.

The communication scripts are simple code blocks, you would need to go into Arduino mode and look at the code to get a better clue what they are doing.
