Hello EZ Robot! Meet Dusty, he is a omnibot torso and I currently have the choice of robbie at head or a omnibot done where you can see inside. He will handle a few basic functions and us made more simple than his big brother Jarvis.
- He can vacuum (which is loud) with power brush and impeller
- He can "sweep" nearly silent by running the power brush at a reduced voltage and a small DC blower providing low level auction. 3.dusty will have two germicidal bulbs ,.one facing downward to the floor and another behind intake fans that not only cool electronics but it pulls air through a Honeywell two stage carbon filter. 4.dusty has 4 build in filters foam pre filter , and 3 carbon filters.
- He will have a camera on pan tilt bracket. He will be controlled by Bluetooth or wifi.
- Long runtime , 2 x 12v 7ah batteries.
Any other suggestions guys?

Thanks for the info maybe a ultrasonic would be better. The arms are optional I just want dusty to clean as well as he possibly can...
The lcd hole is cut and mount glued into place. Tonight I will mount the fan grills properly and create plugs for the inserts that cover the arm holes. I have contemplated placing a speaker somewhere but I have not come up with a place for it yet. I will probably use the speaker from the rad 1.0 robot that is currently getting ramboed up! The slot where the tape deck went is where the ultrasonic radar will be mounted in a slight downward tilt I believe. The vacuum gets added soon too but I want to make this one a tiny bit nicer then the previous one on Jarvis. I believe I will have the vacuum vent inside of the body through a carbon filter and this should slightly reduce the vacuum noise. This robot will usually be in a low light situation so I will have a couple IR illuminators for the camera.
Dusty gets the gift of stereo hearing... well not yet but the stereo sony condenser mic came in...
NOW THAT IS AWESOME!
GOOD JOB!

Too Cool!
Thanks brett! I need to drill out mounts for the grills in each side , cut up the vacuum and attach it to the back of the base. Also I need to mount the camera and ultrasonic radar. I will use velcro I believe to hold down the camera. The area right above the ultrasonic will be a IR illuminator with about 25 collumns with 10 rows ( I will adjust these numbers as needed) that will fit in the area the original lcd was.
Ok for the front illumination I am using 50 leds and a perf board type mount. It will mount with one screw on each side just like the original led bezel did. This should light a dark room well for dusty to see. I will try using a pot to adjust the ir light level to fit my needs or perhaps have it auto adjust based on a light sensor. We will see later. Each led is 2.5 volts but can run at 2.
This is my current idea for wiring the leds
