Introducing the ALTAIR (Affordable Latest Technology Artificially Intelligent Robot) EZ:2 Robot
The first unveiling of the EZ;2 Robot (the commercial version of the EZ:1 Robot that has been seen on this forum) - you guys are seeing the EZ:2 first!
I am proud to confirm that it will have "EZ-Robot inside" and powered by the awesome V4 - well done DJ and the EZ-Robot team for making such a great product that allows robots like the EZ:2 to be light years ahead of the competition!
The EZ:2 will also have face and object recognition capabilities and our advanced Ai engine and will work together with the ARC software.
Because we have been waiting to design in the incredible EZ-Robot V4, we are behind on our development schedule (but it is worth waiting for) and we will now start beta testing in 2015.
I wanted the EZ:2 to look like a robot and not a humanoid and you will see this reflected in the design. I guess not everyone will like the design, but it is practical for (low cost) mass production and because of its modular build transportation costs are reduced.
Hope you all like the EZ:2.

Wow Tony. I'm sitting here shaking my head in wonder. Your little guy is getting more advanced with each rebuild. I love your dedication to making it better and better.
I'm really disappointed we couldn't meet up a few weeks ago when we were within driving distance of each other on vacation. I would have really enjoyed our conversations and the Rum. I think I would have overwhelmed you with questions and admiration (at least until the Rum kicked in).
Dave, yes it was a pity we could not meet up in Jamaica this was our first visit to the Country and we really enjoyed it! I did not have much Rum, but I did drink a lot of Jamaican Smile cocktails!

@Tony..... Hmmm.... rough life you robot creators have...
Rex, here is how I use the L16 linear actuators - as my main servo power supply is 12v (for the Bosch servos), I boost the linear actuators power up from 12v to 18v in the elbow electronics compartment seen below. These step-up converters from ebay are great and only cost a couple of pounds, but I did need to add a heatsink to the surface mount IC. At 18v the actuator runs at quite a nice speed where it is a bit on the slow side at 12v. The linear actuator's pot connects to the Smart servo board for position feedback.

@Tony.
ALTAIR is looking fantastic my friend. The effort you put in to your work really does show and your an inspiration to us all. Once you finalise what you need to do, like others have already said, I really look forward to seeing his guy in action.
Truly Stella work.
Thanks Steve G for the kind words - its appreciated!
