Okio J5 Style Robot Project

This is OKIO J5 style robot made from an upright vaccum cleaner. The head i made from a dremel accessory toolkit and led eyes ,2 servos for eye covers. The neck is supported via 2 Rc oil filled shocks. He is 44 inches in height. Weight is 28 lbs. Has 9 inch Windows 10 tablet. The tracks are not functional. The robot has motorized wheels and 2 from casters. I also installed an HD usb camera between the eyes. Used 19 v lithium battery for drive motors and 7.4 v lithium for electronics. The arms have 2 shoulder servos and the hands are spring loaded fingers from a Robosapien robot.;)

I live in central Arkansas. The name of robot is OKIO. Yes I gutted vac except for power switch. The tracks float above ground. I will post more detail pictures when I return from Bend,Oregon vacation. The neck was created by turning the upper handle 180 degrees.The cannister can be removed with EZB mounted in place. I used a cordless drill battery that slides in the back . The tablet is detachable. Thank you for positive feedback.
