Below are photos of my prototype Sentrybot that I assembled. It is currently controlled with an Arduino Mega and a Mini ITX. I'll be pulling the Arduino as soon as my EZ-B comes in. I've incorporated two digital CCD cameras that give stereo vision, digital range finder and GPS. Currently I have it set-up to navigate by detecting my wired dog fence.

Jstarne1's Building A Giant 3D Printer 720X350x~400Mm Build...
I will have several videos of this project as it comes together Print Area: 720x350x~400mm Build areaPrinter Size:...
Nekoeccentric's Dr.Who's Nsd Dalek
Figured might as well post something about my project. The fabrication is actually still undergo but mostly is done....
Lumpy's Lumpy's Roomba Rover
Hey All! Picked up one of those cheapy arduino wheeled platforms. It came with those cheesy yellow motors and yellow...
This is my second project. It is not pretty, but it is functional. I am able to navigate this bot via WiFi. I used wiper and window motors along with a linear actuator for the arm. I am able to easily grasp and lift 80 pounds with it.

Hardcore ! you need to watch Black Mirror (Metalhead) episode.
Taking in consideration what happened in Florida couple days ago... I would replace the guns pictures (Does not reflect my political/guns view). I feel sorry for all those innocents and related families.
i saw it here on the news ,very sad.it was an AR riffle i think.
I must be living in a cave. I did not hear about Florida. Good grief. How sad. Comment taken well. Great suggestion.
On the turret of my bot was an air-soft pellet that the kids play with.
an ez robot is much better to play with.
Hey,
At least your cave is well protected
Is that a garbage bin ? How many batteries and amps ?
It is a recycle bin. I really liked its form factor.
12 and 24 volts / 5 to 10 amps and 15 amps respectively.
The taller bot (NOMAD) is 36 volts at 15 amps.
I use and modify cheap APC and Cyber Power uninterruptible power supplies. I get them cheap here in Michigan at Microcenter.
I love the Bin used as a cover.. I am trying to figure out how to mold fiberglass to make body panels. I don't have a 3d printer so I'm going to probably use fiber glass. This is a pretty sick robot.
Great work ! I love the use of bin's as a form factor ! They're cheap, easy to modify and they look awesome !
Beep Boop, nice to see another security robot, ! would love to see more build details, wire schematic type stuff to compare notes, good job on keeping the build frugal on costs.
