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....

I love the new head movements.

Are you using two cameras? Sorry if I missed this in past posts. If you are what does each one look for or do?

It will be neat to see it vacuum the room while the head is looking all over the room like a curious dog!

Got my 2 single motor driver boards to control arms. Cytron MD10C 5-30v  can run any motors even for my base terminator outdoors bot running in grass,gravel Hills etc high torque car window motors.For now will just run the cheap 6 volt elbow motors with PWM from the Ezb4 digital pin.

Well, seems that my old EZ camera died for no reason, it says it is connected and everything normal, light is green but no picture ever starts up? swapped with a newer EZ cam and perfect picture comes. I did notice the picture on old cam was getting more blurred with less light over time,so I guess something slowly died in camera circuit. Good thing you can attach any camera though but love how EZ cam was so good with A.I. detecting movements and colors.

It's odd you're having these failures. Have you checked your power supply?
