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....

No Ezang I have not, I am trying to get real time TTS voice though, not pre recorded MP3? Dalek uses old fashion early 1970's or late 60's synthesiser distortion.

ok I understand, a real time TTS voice

I have to record what I want to say on Audacity  for my robot voice

Here is a sample, because you said you did not hear it before:

by the way, how do you run Cylonix?

I added foot pads to the Dalek six feet and made it walk much more quiet on wood floor.Only it is still a bit slippery and has hard time turning with sonar avoidance,need to tweak the turn speeds.Added long running heavier Lipo battery inside Dalek body,helps with traction!

Also, I did some testing with the robot Sonar and see how it can explore the living room more cluttered now with chairs and dining table there, Did okay in some area but the turning away from objects is still hit and miss due to slippery waxed floor, need to possibly increase the back up and turn radar movement,Fun to watch the little guy go!

So I was really impressed with this six robot sample program in the Synthiam ARC do it yourself robot projects! All ready to go on PC or Mobile phone app features,working! I am just loving the Dalek's new smooth moves! There is a ton of ready made movements ready to go.:D

Dalek scares a Baby, LOL! I think now I need to build a Life size Dalek too,looks like more fun at the Comicons!

Oh Hell...This is not cool, no more Science Fiction. Once they replace soldiers with machines only bad things can happen,not cool with this. Oh wait it is not real I did not read the whole thing,thank god for that,but I bet they do exist in secret!
