Ezbv4 Without A Case?

Hello to All My little one is doing well. I have gotten busy working and ran out of hands on time, so the project has slowed down, Soon I will try my hand at writing scripts for her. (New dress soon.)

My new question is I have a latex minion doll which is about 8" (200 mm for you Canadian Guys) ( lol ). I had installed 2 mini servos in the head for eye movement, blinking and activating a switch to drive a built in sound board and speaker. I plan on adding one more servo for body movement. (Was R/C controlled). Not much room left for the ezb and battery.

Any suggestions on how to remove the case from the ezb and connect the speaker power etc without destroying the ezb.

I may have to go another route if I will destroy the precious ezb. (ezb to drive a Wireless Adruino Slave ?)

Maybe someday DJ will build a mini ezb with less IO ? for projects like this. (Entry level)

Hey Andy, If you build a small stand with the EZ-B inside and the Minion on top you will have the room in the robot for the servos and speaker and the EZ-B and battery can be in the stand. Hope this works for you.

The stand idea will work. I wanted to see if I could come up with a way to reduce the control size and still use the EZB power. I have two ideas which can use this mini control idea. I still want to consider and build a master/slave control using the ezb.

Thanks for the idea. The stand will help with the developing of the minion robot.

Glad to help anytime I can. I have one of those Minions also. He might need an EZ-B. Hmmmmmmmmm EZ-B can make a cool backpack on a Minion also.

A work hat camera too! LOL You got me thinking!

Thanks

A hat cam would work very well! The minion attached to the base would keep him from falling over also. Plus servos could make him dance!
