Hi.

This is Skully my first Pic robot.Still under construction. I am going to make it as a multipurpose Robot.

I have finish working on the head movement and hacking my MP4 player for the voice. I have include several photos

of the MP4. It's quite challanging to solder the wire in very limited space.

It will bed a security robot

It will bed a security robot after I put a PIR sensor. For the voice I will sacrifice my MP3/4 player and Skully will be a multimedia robot.

I will program it to play few Music Video Clip as well as other Robot Video when he do nothing.

I’ve clearly been watching
I’ve clearly been watching too much of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - I see a robotic skull and panic! Good work though, the up/down motion is an unusual addition.

YES!!!  Now this is a robot in my taste!

Give it some creepy strobes and some simulated blood stains and you got a robot!  -lol

Checkout my Evil Dead robot. Its the same kind of thing, only a bit more noobie.
