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....

So the Cylon is about ready to roll around the house on Roomba power with all sensors fixed and working,even Camera as you can see it likes watching me move around. Almost seems curious even. Obstacle avoidance sonar is very good now and I only need to write some code to be able to turn on and off vacuum and other routines. The wiring is a bird nest so I bought some Tie wrap and electrical tape to make sure wires don't short on the chrome body,look neater.Working on speech routines too.Oh ya, the left hand broke and I need to adjust servo higher up,LoL!
Still problems with the hand servo. I am going to replace it with a newer one. I DID get a start on voices and eye sound effect for roaming the house ,it can tell latest weather and news headlines with Android RSS text to speech and converted on the Fly to Cylon voice from the vocoder windows app I use. Real time voice conversion can be sent to bot.
Took a break from Mr Cy, as I fixed the EZ camera for 6 robot and the Sonar,which only had a dirty pin so,built in regulator was not getting a signal from robot controller, cleaned pin with isopropyl alcohol and then working good as new. Here I demonstrate both fixed cam and sonar operating together giving Spider Life..." It's alive!...alive!"

hi roborad
i send you some sounds .
Testing out the new booming mega speakers so Cylon can play music while vacuuming the house,nice bass on these.
Well Wow, now I can really hear the Eye scanner effect! Before, with the stock EZB4 built in speaker, that sound effect could not be heard! Now with these USB amplified speakers ,scan sound in all it's original, classic full glory! This is done with the EZB sound hack, 2 wires are soldered on circuit board at direct signal output solder holes.Then only Amplified speakers work with higher clarity!
HOLY smokes! Anyone see that huge Black Widow Spider bot in the Book of Boba Fett Ep#3 , what a cool idea for the cottage!
