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....

Here he demonstrates his sonar vision to avoid objects outside and with BB gun attached with cam to aim it.I wanted to use the 7 inch latte panda display to show the Terminator targeting all in red on his chest but the display is defective and the tech support at DF robot seems useless,may have wasted 50 bucks on that display if I can't get a replacement.

Wow so Robot shop Canada comes through again with super fast delivery like I ordered Friday and here this morning, I love those guys!The 7" display I originally got from DF robot china was a dud and can get another one for exchange but the ridiculous shipping costs not worth it (50.00) last time for duty tax? So Lucky that Robot shop sells the other 7" display HDMI and touch version that connects to Latte Panda or any small computer. Using it now and the Quality of this one is so much better! Using it now.It even came with free mounting screws for attach Panda to the back and an extra HDMI-HDMI adapter for 2 displays! I will use this as the mobile touch computer for all my robots and to go on my haunted adventures using the Kinect camera hooked to Panda and new display...Thank you RobotShop.ca! My only complaint with them was when I ordered 4 EZ robot HDD servos they all came with no mounting discs or plastic attachments so it made my life hell trying to fabricate them on the Terminator arms.Not sure who responsible for shipping servos with no attachments,possibly EZ Robot ships like that?

Do you have the link so I can get the model number to search on the US shop?  Been looking for some small HDMI displays.

This was the one I got from robotshop Canada.
Awesome thanks, so not high enough resolution to run ARC, but could show a standard or custom web page or any number of other useful things....

Actually running ARC right now and it works great, I can totally do everything I could on the big monitor. ----Oh wait ok, so everything does look sharp and clear,my ARC projects all fit great on the screen but only thing is at this resolution the save button gets cut off at the bottom but only when saving project to synthiam cloud. Saving file on computer works great though, So this is a very tiny problem that I'm sure could be resolved possibly just need to reduce the custom font size or icon size down by 25%. I will figure it out. The touch is very responsive and just like having an expensive windows tablet but with real windows using  latte Panda.

Larger front drive tires added for increased stability and center of robot gravity is perfect with heavy battery distribution! I may need to adjust shims on Left drive wheel to get straighter. Will see how much faster I can get it to go out in the field with out falling over LOL!
