This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

Force Sensing Resistor kit, 24" strip Prolly only need 2, one on each thumb.
Also checkout their touch sensor boards at the bottom of: Force Sensors / Pressure / Touch Sensors - Trossen Robotics These are capacitive touch sensors, meaning you can apply copper foil to the inside surface of wherever you want to sense someones touch & connect/wire it to the correct spot on one of these boards, & it'll sense a humans touch right through the plastic.
Yeah that was my suggestion to Josh but I did a stupid thing and loaded Windows8 before testing it. I bought these little kits that are smaller than your fingernail, then made one but assumed that Windows 8 wouldnt screw up my bluetooth. mad
sorry dude , win 8 works fine on my tablet , but im not the one who installed it either ;/ I really really like the idea of the robot sensing when you touch it, that moves it from toy to really interactive!
I liked the though of touching the back of its arm and having it flinch or touch its head and it reacts like a cat. Thats not including funny sound clips like...."DONT TOUCH ME THERE!"
Men.... Josh you need a woman. I would never have let Steve move in. But glad u kicked him out.
@glickclick
i have a MIO PUP that does that,when you touch him on his plastic body it says dont touch me plus getting ready to use EZB on him,it has capacitance sensor on the inside for touch
@ROBOTMAKER Yep now we will have Omnibots with them.
