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....

Since this started out as a Terminator Thread, yep still got it but it will go back on top of the outdoor 4 wheel ATV mobile base for cottage!...
Hey Robo Rad, I had a couple of things I thought I'd mention.
For your camera, as @nomad mentioned you can turn the cable 180 degrees around (end for end it) to see if that will help. The camera cable is multidirectional. You can also reseat the camera board with the camera backboard, to see if it's just a bad connection.
For the EZ-Robot HDD servos, they are rated at load for a maximum of 8.4V. They will survive being supplied with a higher voltage, I just can't guarantee safe operation beyond 8.4V.
Good to know Jer, will take another look at that EZ cam, I hate losing a good EZ cam.
Hi robo rad, that’s great to hear it worked. In retrospect I wish someone would’ve thought about that a few years back when mine went dead. Anyway glad to see it’s working and nice Robots. Cheers
Okay so back to smart camera vision then, right now my Newer Samsung phone can do what I want but there is no Link to my ARC program. I Have seen some DJ videos where he demonstrated EZ CAM doing similar A.I. with ARC software which would be way better. Going to look into that.
I am almost done with the walking program, just need to fix right arm for my many different walking patterns.I decided on using new servos for arms,trust me, way less head aches!
