Here is the current look of this project, Super cool update, magpi magazine wants to feature this build with steps how it was done , !

Stonewolf's Here It Is So Far.
Well robotic friends, this is a first look at what I am building. Figured I would give you all a look what I have done...

The robot max is based off of inmoov and I 3d printed everything on him. This is my first 3d printed robot. Also the...

I have decided to hold up on Project Magnus I have been working on this build for several years now and it looks like it...

T-RADD (Tactical Recon And Deterrent Droid)
Ok so I started by attaching the sensor stalk to the top of the battery cover, I used Liquid nails clear first after scuffing the plastics on both parts. I used Liquid nails because it is very thick and I needed to center and balance the tube into the correct position. The thick viscosity holds the part in place after I center it. I needed to completely cover the hole where the seat mount was and also level it. So I eye balled it till I liked where it was. I will also put some screws in it later when it is reinforced with fiberglass cloth. It needs to be able to withstand being kicked or falling over on its side without significant damage.
So I have been pondering theft PREVENTION measures. I have a spare car alarm I could use and maybe with some sensors could use it to sound car alarm if the robot is tampered with. So I have a couple ideas but I want to open a discussion about this as it is something that any autonomous robot indoor or outdoor faces.
viper / Directed 2 way alarm system ( reports back to a remote when a sensor is set off.
Tilt Sensors, physically arranged in 4 directions and mounted to the frame. Forward, backward and side to side.
Plunger sensors or magnetic
4, two on the from lid and two on the rear.
Magnetic sensor, one inside the lid of the sensor stalk.
Ok so 9 sensors there.
Lastly Maybe I could have something that senses the wheels are turning but not energized , or maybe the brake release could have a magnet sensor.
Basically I want something that is very undesirable to drag through my yard to steal.
Ok 4 raspberry pi 3 have been prepped and setup or continuous recording at 800x640 and 15 frames per second . The files are saved 600 seconds at a time in MPEG 4 .avi . Recording to 64 Gb on a Sandisk 64 Gb high endurance card ( specifically for continuous video recording)
And the drilling begins
I added the two IR leds to the camera which come on in low light and have an adjustable pot on each board. I will likely use clear epoxy to seal the sensors and plastidip to make the board water resistant. The plastidip peels off if needed.
How did you determine how high in the cylinder they should be?
I am considering trimming down the cylinder a couple inches. I took in mind spacing sensors apart at least 2 inches apart.
Ultrasonic , pi cams, EZB cam. Pyro motion sensor
Ok , still have the ultrasonic sensors .motion sensors , and EZb cam to find a place for.
