Well , Been working on the skull this weekend cutting and trimming .
And alot more to do .I set teeth in dental acrylic,
But the teeth will screw in , So I can remove them for the mechanics.
WOW! Very impressive, I really like the site. But you need to put more information on it , great pictures of your work though.
Do you do this professionally? Or is this a hobbie that has consumed you like robots have most of us?
I only have one question, are you taking on any apprentices?
What a very cool project! You are definately an artist in your medium. I can’t wait to see the entire process documented and the finished project.
If you are making an instructional video or something along those lines I am serious about learning how to do this!
Cool, In college (which I never finished) I was an art major.
I still do some stuff on occasion, I’ve been doing alot of vaccum forming. If you have been reading the other treads here on the forum you can tell covering my bot with an exoskeleton is as interesting to me as the technical side of this hobby.
My intention is to build a humanoid robot with a degree of autonomy that looks like something people would expect from a movie.
Funny, people in general have a certain expectation of how robots should look. Obviously this is influenced from what they see and are familiar with from movies like “I Robot”, “Starwars” and other sci-fi favorites.
For me this is a challenge I have committed to and plan on fullfilling. The fun is seeing how close I can come to making something that everyone thinks about but never really expects could exist in real life.
It is a big challenge for me since I have little electronics background, fortunately the structural and artistic side of things come very naturally.
Once I get a little further along in my design phase I’ll share it with you and the other guys.
I assume this is the up and down movement for the entire head, yes?
What servo are you using? Is it the 5995? The reason I ask is because if the head is heavy one servo may not do the trick.
What is the wieght of the piece you are lifting?
