I made a johnny five robot from lynxmotion and made many changes ,upgraded to higher torque servo's,added another deck for itx board,change the motors for higher torque,looking to add feedback,plus more servo's in arms ,plus web cam and more
Most of this is done already,was going to use lynxmotion SSC-32 servo board until i found the best controller for it EZB
BIGGEST problem finding a small ITX to replace my pico-itx board at 1 ghz 2 gig ram
here is a photo of the design without changes
soon as i get home tonight hope to post photos of my build
here is a photo of a head design looking to make
mine will be close to it
Those head pistons look like air actuators. robotmaker do you have robots that have air actuators or " air muscles"?
That's the kind of head I would expect on a J5, not the silly little head they put on the Lynx motion one.
Yes i am using air actuators on mine,it will be a mix of lynxmotion and plastic and other parts to make it kinda close,i havent odered the parts yet,mostly got the torso and hands done and base. I first made the complete kit and then made a lot of changes ,even his hands are near the same 3 fingers instead of 5 that the kit has. going to use windows 7,stripped version
also i found a red headscarf that looks close to one johnny five has
Hit up ebay for paisley bandana and I'm sure you will find a match, there are thousands of them on there.
thats one i found on ebay,
found a better and cheaper $2.75 on ebay
