My name is Joshua, and I've been fiddling around with robotics and animatronics for about 3 - 4 years now and have just competed my my full size pneumatic guitar player. I hope you enjoy my video I made to showcase the character;

I also have uploaded a guide to get started making your own characters. If you are interested please click this link :)
We are looking forward to see more details provided.People like to know in details which parts were used, how much did they cost, and they like to see schematics.
This is a great project. Have you thought about linking a soundtrack to movements? I think a great upgrade could be to add lights to the guitar while it’s playing.
I was just trying to get a quick one uploaded. I am going to upload a better version soon, explaining in detail everything I did. Thanks for the welcome and help
Yes, that was going to be the future plan!!
The control board I am using has DMX outputs, which makes it easier to sequence the lights to any soundtrack.
I’ll upload a video to my channel sometime soon of it preforming to an audio track. I am still trying to perfect my knowledge of the program and pursue smooth programming. It’s an art form in itself!
I feel very glad to have nice people viewing and complementing my creations. Thank you
Also, planning on adding a skin to the outside of the character, and also adding a stage with lights and a working curtain. Thats the bid idea.
I am also working on a servo powered character, which is currently a bit of a secret, but i plan on releasing footage once it is out to the public and being produced. Hopefully, once I release it, you will be able to buy your own if you wanted to. It’s a kit that should be relatively affordable for what it is.
If you upload more cool videos about your robot on your youtube channel, I would suggest that you also put the link in Robots section.
