Controlled by a pic 16f84a microcontroller, it responds to light and shadows in a brightly lit room. Made of plywood, paper clips and popsicle sticks, as far as mechanics.seven servos in all for actuators.The shell is vaccum formed plastic.The video is a bit different than the project at its current stage, as I ultimately wanted more dynamic movement, rather than eye and mouth movement. More video will be coming soon:)
The second video is with an arduino duemanilove board controlled by a single potentiometer.I'm going with the original pic because the movement is creepy and that works well for this particular project.
Yeah.It’s a pretty simple Yeah.It’s a pretty simple process.But just so you know, the head is actually paper mache.I was kind of inspired by old automata from centuries past and thats why I tried that.I just saw the new paper mache post.I think it’s really cool that I’m not the only guy who has tried that!
