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....

This is how the eyes look with full 12 volts, at 15 volts I do have a resistor I can add so bulbs don't blow.
looking good :-)

Well really excited about getting EZB Tiny from robotshop Canada. Seems I got the last one available until they get new stock in the future.This seems to sell out really well.Love my EZ4 but need it on the Giant Atv Cylon. The Tiny can be used on my smaller bots. I wish I bought 3 of them, at 30 bucks so much performance for the bucks! Shipment delayed to Tuesday now.
Wow just got EZB TINY! I had no idea it was that small!! I will be buying more of these, can fit these controllers in anything!love EDIT--- Just noticed views have gone up to 8k level,that is mind blowing! I never pay attention to those statistics,this is just me having fun with help from all you other robot builders out there on Synthiam that are way smarter than me.I would say some of the first robots that started this life long interest,movies like starwars,Galactica and even Disney classic the black hole! Omni magazine growing up with and thousands of Quarters in high school on an old arcade machine in the lunch time pool hall, Berserk.or Robotron. Thanks guys for your interest in what I do with my favorite movie robots as an adult.Most thanks to DJ for starting his company making a kids dreams come true!
Glad you like the IoTiny @Robo rad! It was definitely a fun challenge to make an EZB that small.
Yes Jer I remember DJ saying you designed the Tiny! An Absolute miracle for placing it anywhere, I even want one for My Fiero on the dash to do all kinds of cool stuff!.. Next topic here, I just tested how long my Roomba would clean the house with Li ion battery and timed it at exactly 1 hour and 18 minutes,not too shabby! Next test will be on EZB Tiny and Terminator head with glowing eyes on top the Roomba and battery time test.
Oh -my-god. That is all I need to do to change my Create 2 into normal brush cleaning Roomba?? As all the regular brush and side motors ar still there,just buy the main and side brush then look in my parts bins,find equivalent pastic holder instead of 3d printing one and Bingo,there I go. Too easy. Will have an actual hacked Terminator head / intruder cam cleaning my floors at programmed intervals.
LOL! I7 better than more expensive 1000.00 I9???
