Getting Started
MU works with a robotic body by sending remote control commands. Just imagine a toy having
its remote control on top of its head.. Currently, MU supports the control commands of Lego
Mindstorms EV3, Lego Power Functions, Hexbug Spider, and Hexbug Fire ant.
MU uses infra-red (IR) technology to send control signals, theoretically any infra-red controlled
toy can potentially be controlled by MU. We will add newly supported toys through firmware
updates in our online forum (forum.morpx.com). For advanced users, MU also has ports to
connect directly with servos, Arduino, or Raspberry Pi (Please also check our online forum for
details).
To mount MU on a toy, use the included double-sided tape. First, secure the mount on the toy.
(P1)
Then insert MU onto the mount. Make sure that the camera direction is looking forward. (P2)
Press the Power button to turn on MU. (P3)
NOTE: The effective range of the IR signal of MU is limited to avoid interferences with other
devices. The typical range is a few inches under or behind the device. P4 illustrates the effective
range. Please make sure your toy’s IR receiver is within the covered range.
