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....

MY brush and motor compartment came in today. So adding on create2 takes 5 minutes with screwdriver.
All in now...
Next thing is if you use power for side brush module and you have no brush there ,you can attach power for any microcomputer that needs more Amps to those power wires.It will not trip Roomba fuse at that connection.Here the Lady shows how to get access to side brush motor module.....
Terminator Roomba has a great wiring--electronics body shield now at the back. Just like the old classic TV series MacGyver ,I just find old parts in my bin and re use them for new projects. This came off the Robosapien Media and has a great window to see the L.E.D. lights through. I don't need to worry about it hitting chairs and ripping wires out again. Can leave it on roomba schedule cleaning and not even be home....
Damn that wire shield on the back just makes it look too Evil now! I would do a video demo but I need to send in another subscription to keep all those great new plug in on Arc. ROBOT would be less fun on basic version.
I used my other computer to install Basic ARC just to get short video of Bat like operation with new shield on the back, it took some hits on the back and protection works!
Don't try to fk with the cleaning person...or the cleaning person will fk you up!!!
I am going to add a squirter gun electric nozzle so I can shoot cleaning fluid around the floor and attach swiffer jet cleaning pad under the Vacuum tray. COULD in theory be aimed up to squirter Acid at burglers intruding at 3 in the morning too...Ha ha!xD
Ideas for the Roomba? Oh yeahhhh, Like the old Tv commercial when we were kids...Giant pitcher of cherry Kool Aid bashes through the wall....Well now as adults you can have a Mini Keg of Heineken Beer fit perfectly on your Roomba with no Tape or Velcro, It just hangs on! Perfect for your next Christmas Party and just in time for New Years Eve as well!
