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....

It also reminded me of the original 70's movie West world with that cowboy Android going nuts and killing everyone in sight by duel and he always says "Draw" before it kills. Actually I think it even had the same type of machine cameras we use today for tracking human color and infrared heat,Way before it's time!

Ya, West World was one of the creepiest movies I've seen. It really left an impression on me. I think I saw it in first run at a movie theater. Back then you never heard or saw innocent people being randomly killed.  Tragically, now a days it happens all too often.:(

I am really interested in other people's Terminator projects so when I saw this it blew me away! Then I kind of noticed the movements do not look real at all, more like the old stop motion camera trick used in first Terminator movie. Also do not see any servos or cables moving, got suspicious, What you guys think? Real or not?

Its beautiful...looks like the guy handcrafted it out of wood!!

To me the head looks like it is driven by servos, would make sense!!:)

Head over to YouTube guys, the whole thing is made of cardboard and wood...beautiful!! It also has working servos, but probably not on all of those joints!!

Great find...subbed!!:)

i dont think its real.cause to move such a big arm that smooth,you will need the very expencive servo's excample from robotis.

Lots of liner actuators. They must have spent a fortune on them. The move pretty fast.  Dont know if they are electric or hydraulic.
