telepresence robot using SKYPE
This has to be my simplest robot I've ever made. All you need is two pcs, and one must be a laptop (or a smartphone...), a toy truck,skype on both devices, wifi (or phone service...be creative!), and two webcams (or they can be built in...). Oh! and a large rubberband. Be an overachiever and get a whole bag! Just follow these steps that i made up to be awesome:
Step 1: Make a sandwich.
Step 2:Dont ever skip this step. it is vital to the project.
Step 3:Make two skype accounts (one for each pc)
Step 4: (the tricky one) Attach the laptop to the RC vehicle with the rubber band.
Step 5:Turn on both computers, the car, and the controller.
Step 6:Boot up skype on both computers and call one. Answer with video
for best results.
Step 7: Isolate yourself in a room such as a closet or a bathroom or a backroom.
Step 8: Enjoy your sandwich and let your robot terrorize the locals >:D
(I told you that the sandwich was vital!!!)
~enjoy!~
