Ezb Controlled Lynxmotion Johnny Five Robot

Skip to comments   Jump to end

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

will be posting photos of it with changes,it a little apart for more upgrades kit is about $900 and to add very high torque servo's about $1300 like i did 16 servo's now and might add 2 more for drive

Any chance you will build a full sized J5? Now that you're retiring early you will have lots of time.

Maybe you could take them to the movie theater and get paid for showing it? I'm not sure of the legality of that or what permissions you need from the creators of the movie. If you use ez-b in any part of it be sure to mention it.:)

I read the disclaimer at that website. It says it's "in no way a source for blueprints for this robot. Our information is kept private and is not intended for commericial purposes".

@robotmaker perhaps you need a EZB inventory machine to fetch a certain box . That is a vertical and horizontal carriage. like a CNC/3Dprinter only verticle.....just trying to be helpful:)
