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....

Ok so the 2 halves match up really well! Scott really helped me out big time by doing most of the rough cutting for me before shipping,really nice guy to deal with! I only need to cut out eye slit for lights and glue the halves together. Then on to the neck servos! The Cylon voice will be just the EZ-B speech synthesizer going into my old Iphone using the Q-Neo voice effect cylon distortion "On the Fly" voice changer app. An MP3 will also be added for the Eye warble sound effect....Not sure why the photo downloaded upside down?Ya weird every pic I try going upside down,strange.
Try again here I got Cy patiently waiting for me to glue his head together and a new body while T 800 waits to have body completed, he is a bit less patient though!It's coming together pretty great
So Mr T 800 will be going in his comfy home for a while until I can get at my power tools in the RV which has a ton of snow in the way,next month is supposed to be a big warm up and then I can continue his body build.
Mr Cy is going to be
huge with what I am formulating in my head as the helmet is very light weight. The Chrome vacuum will be cut at the sides to show inner Exoskeleton and I am going to use my artistic skills to duplicate his back pack and chest plate similar to the Battlestar Razor modern CGI version of these classic centurians. I have done something similar once with paper mache to build a hard body piece that can be chrome plated. This time I will start with card board boxes and cut them to the correct shapes to make the chest and back pieces,very light weight again! Then I will use Chrome wrap that many cars use these days.Some hot Glue of course (Later add screws) He will share the same base motor drive that T 800 has.For now I need to get the neck servo attached.This is the look I'm going for with Cy but instead of walking he will have the 3 wheel base drive and I have a bunch of robot arms in my RV that I need to get for both bots and attach them later.
