Yes, it is another Star Trek character, and she thinks, she is "Irresistible". I started this project last December and been sidetracked by another project and life. This is as far as it went, but thought I would share it. 7 uses a lightweight fiberglass body, a DIY eye with movement, a plasma disc, an EZ Robot camera, lotiny, micro servos, and Borg weathered mostly DIY hardware. Since this video, I applied a green film to the plasma disc, to create a more "Borg" look.

As I said before, Ive been working on a 24 DOF humanoid robot (what i believe to be the most DOF in a EZ-Robot humanoid)...

I bought an R2-D2 interactive that was working and I just didn’t feel like I could hack it because it seemed somewhat...
Pretty fabulous. What is your plan with this one?
@Steve
Thanks for your update and testing.
I might revert back to using AAA batteries and mount the switch external to the plasma unit, somewhere on my InMoov. At the moment the switch isn’t accessible.
Cheers Chris.
sfoy, I have not seen you post for a while, great to hear from you. My plan was to fabricate an arm with those Bosch motors I acquired from Tony, but I have been sidetracked. Hoping to get back to her later.
CEM, I was able to simulate an on/off switch by installing a battery plastic pull tab insulator on the positive + side of the casing near the "ON" lettering, then installing a jumper on both sides. (SEE PICTURE) The plasma disc operated fine without the wires getting warm, with the original switch in the "ON or SOUND Modes" for over 10 minutes. I will probably install a small relay or something similar on Seven, to have EZ Robot control it. Steve S
Steve,
I get sidetracked too. That’s what has happened to me over the last few years. I recently unpacked all my robot stuff and have started on a new Omnibot.
I got into Star Trek with the next generation and loved the borg. Can’t wait to see.
So coooool!
@Steve
Reverted back to the 2x AAA batteries on the plasma unit and it works fine, had it on for about 15 mins and the plasma screen didn't go blank once.
I wondering if its noise on the 3v line, there shouldn't be as its going through a step down DC to DC converter and has plenty of smoothing on the 3v output! I might do some more testing.
Cheers Chris.
Hi Chris. Removed.
@Dave
Removed ?
I don’t understand
