Introduction
on IndieGoGo Now
 
I have been working on this walking dinosaur kit for some time now. I am super excited that it is on Indiegogo. My wife is happy to longer need to remind me late at night that it’s time to go to sleep. The easy to follow instructions allow someone with a modest skill level to assemble the robot and have it walking in a matter of hours. There is no soldering or programming required to build and play with it. With a little more in-depth involvement you can connect the AI hardware and enable Google Assistant or Alexa.

Intellisaurus

It's available.

The robot is about 8 inches tall.

The robot runs on: 11 - MG966 servos, Arduino Nano, PCA9685 servo controller, 2 - 18650 Li-ion batteries, mp2307 voltage regulator.

One VL6180X to keep from bumping into things, and jumping off cliffs.

One MPU6050 to help stand up straight.

It can also add on a RaspberryPi zero W with 3inch speaker and camera. I connected this up to Google's various AI kits to allow the dinosaur to act smart. Easiest thing to do is load Google assistant to allow the walking Dino to be a cooler version of your Google Home.

Here is a video of Google Assistant, running on the robot.  

This frame can wear different shells such as Triceratops, Stegosaurus, or Dragon, each sold, or printed on your own 3D printer, separately.

 

It will all be open source software, so you can modify, and improve Intellisaurus.
