Wheeler Chair Robot
I saw that last year somebody had built a wheel chair robot?. My idea for the new Robot will be as a stage mascot that can also pretend to play the drums on stage. My brother has a live Metal band every Saturday night and most of the time we have trouble with no drummer showing up. We end up using a Drum machine instead with the 2 other guys on real guitars and singing. So Terminator will be able to move around and substitute behind the drum kit with the Live drum machine signal activating terminator arms at the drums. Also need him to move around in a wheel chair , so is anyone out there that has done this wheel chair hack, looking for suggestions on power/motor controller connections etc...should not be too hard just larger than I'm used to building. This is a youtuber that bought what I just bought,takes a month to get from China and we are building the rest of the Endoskeleton to integrate in wheel chair....

While the Iphone app and Irig audio connector works great for small robots and even as a costume voice changer microphone inside the helmet for costume parties. I still love the way the windows Cylonix program sounds with about a hundred dials for tweeking effects! Here I was fooling around to make the robot voice sound even more clear so that anybody can tell what the robot is saying without reading any sub text captions.I think I am getting better while still maintaining the original voice of the classic CylonsPossibly on the too quiet side? Note, this is not me talking, it is text to speech from the Microsoft David voice used as the default voice in ARC TTS voice.Modified byCylonix real time voice vocoder program in windows on my Latte Panda mini computer.
Here we can see it is not just me and a few other people using ARC robots to do this ChatGPT thing. IT Seems to be a major push on making all robots smarter, even as companions for kids.
Well I don't know, is this too real for most people to wrap their head around? When I get my big robot up to cottage and I sit on the porch shooting the s__t with the GPT4 on robot. Some people passing by and try to talk with robot may have a heart attack, how real it seems, the old neighbors there HA ha!!..the chat about Viking made me spit out my coffee laughing so hard! How is this technology possible?? ChatGPT3.5 "Mongo Tom"
This is interesting. I was able to add open A.i. web site to my chrome browser ,on my old laptop ,running just a dual Pentium mobile cpu .Then I added the chrome extension to enable speech recognition and TTS speech voices to talk back. Called Talk-to-ChatGPT v1.6.2 ,then I noticed the A.I. website had saved my previous conversations using the Mongo Tom rude,swearing A.I. Personality from my other cell phone as, you must sign on with same email...Bonus! The built in microphone works perfect on the old laptop,no mistaken words and I can sit far away from laptop when chatting. SO this solves some complicated robot setup that I don't need now, just only movement scripts and sound servo edits.The robot voice can also work several ways.Most easy is via The Google mini Bluetooth speaker can output the laptop sounds.
Ya disclaimer here or warning..this is the Jailbreak version of ChatGPT called Mongo Tom, really hard to find so this has nothing to do with Synthiam Arc.Found in the Google play store.If you are sensitive to rude language do not click the video. Mongo Tom in my robot made me laugh so hard I spit out my coffee!:) Can't wait to get up to cottage with the Cylon for hilarious porch conversations!
Here I modified the speech to be a bit higher pitch to sound like classic voice and try to clear up words.Changed from Microsoft David to Microsoft Mark on my Windows Cortana TTS voice as well.Running all on my Latte Panda for robot.It always sounds better on my headphones than my cell phone, so I keep second guessing myself how it sounds. Won't really now know until robot is outside with booming speaker!
well this is the final test video for getting my perfect robot voice. Since I am taking the robot apart to bring up North for the summer, Fresh air and wilderness just perfect for the robot to roam around and be really loud. All i did was less Bass and a bit more echo so it will give it that really loud effect outside to scare them Racoons away! all self contained in the little Latte Panda computer.
Too bad that booming voice wont work with scaring the mosquitos away along with the racoons. LOL.
It sounds like you're really close to the original voice. Any tweaking seems to be a lateral move. Still, the original voice seemed tome to be a lower pitch then what you've done. Don't get me wrong, I think your version is really good.
I'm sure you already know this but I was reading that the synthesized robotic-sounding voices of the Cylon centurions were done by Michael Santiago using the EMS Vocoder 2000. Again, you probably already watched this and many like it but I found it festinating and stoked my fire to re watch the original series:
