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

Hopefully your trip is not into Beijeng a very polluted city! Big pay is good to help support your family and robot projects and we are ALL looking forward to your EZB photos! ps please post any robotic stuff you might see in China!:)

Little by little getting parts in for my johnny five project.

I have lot of milling to be done. and getting ready to order some of the plastic bars for it.

I do have a full size wooden PROP from the movie i bought while back,using it as a template and with photos off the input-inc site (cant wait for the plans for full size to be ready) i might be the first to get the plans.

How are you going to control these air cylinders? How can you interface this with ezb

#55  

with a air switch,and using a small air tank,and if it needs to be refilled ,i can use a servo attached to a syringe to pump more air into it plus will have air stops switches

I used some like this at work for special fixtures i designed and made for production
