i-Box, Cricket Logo and Arduino

Preamble

I got an i-Box (v1) based robot for 100 baht. This robot is a PIC16C715 based device, with a dual motor driver, EEPROM serial memory and a comms IC, all mounted on a PCD a couple of inches square.

It has a number of variants, and brand names, such as:

• i-Box III
• Handy Cricket, hardware
• RoboCircle (3)(s)
• RoboBOX (3)
• GripCIRCLE
• etc.

These are essentially the same device.

It is quite difficult to locate any online information about the i-Box v.1, per se. Information on the i-Box III can be found online however,

0.91″ SSD1306

Preamble

I bought this, 0.91″128×32 IIC I2C White DIY OLED LCD Display Module 3.3V Fr PIC Arduino Hot im and connected it to an Arduino Mega, SDA/SCL/GND and connected to 5V and thought that I had broken it…

It turns out that I hadn’t, and only the very first versions of this display are 3V3 sensitive. However, finding a library to work was a bit of a task, and a small library, that doesn’t gobble up all of the Arduino’s memory, is even harder to find.

GhettoVaper – an extended GhettoVape III

Preamble

Following on from Vaping – Box Mods, I decided to extend the GhettoVape III sketch, which was posted by Julian Loiacono:

• The original code is here, Github: GhettoVapeIII.
• My version of the code is here, Github: GhettoVaper.
