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....

The built in sound is really loud too! Do not need the audio hack! Got to program in some of DJ's spider attack sounds!
I agree more awesome than watching a Roomba vacuuming lol

So here I am testing out the EZ sonar ,at the top, seems to work great,got it so it backs away from movement 15 cm away.

i see danger danger danger .
Here is my example of the ultrasonic radar scan, distance and collision:
A litter boring, but it is just a sensor, lol
these are just tests
Had it set for 35 in. 45 in. works better - in the minimum distance before turning

Ya I have had 2 sonar sensors on a big robot outside left and right, both detecting trees, rocks set at 120 cm,worked excellent.Or is it inches ?anyway 120 was what I use outside.
Well with 6 spider running good, back to working on getting Cylon to run on Roomba power and motors, support wheels at back and borrowed the sonar from 6, as it has a voltage regulator that works. I Should be able to get Cylon to run with Synthiam roomba script and sonar avoiding furniture, front bumpers of roomba should also work now too,will setup for slower speed.
Seems to run good now on Roomba motors and Lithium Ion Battery. Added sonar so not to hit furniture anymore and modified bottom of roomba cover so IR and bumper sensors can work on Roomba.Still finds docking charger by itself good. Need to add the 2 extra support wheels at back, now modified for perfect fit but need to use long screws for good secure connection. will do tomorrow,then can let it go twice as fast!:DArms and other parts mounted tomorrow as well.
