I designed IQ as a proof of concept robot.It is made of foam core 5mm thick board with .020 styrene plastic sheet overlays. He is 4.5 feet tall and can telescope its head another 8 inches using a camera tripod with motor drive. There is a windows 8.1 tablet installed on its chest. Power comes from a lithium battery pack for drive wheels and a 12 vdc sla battery for the electronics. The EZB 4 is connected in client mode. It is designed not to tip over with anti tipping brackets beneath the lower frame..The movement speed is moderate for stability. The arms are from a Robosapien that i received that did not work.I gutted the arms and installed 3 servos for each arm .It can rotate its arms ,elbows and open and close hands.

@RGordon, You worked on a Unicorn One? So did I. That was Neat looking but not very functional. Small world.

seems like a million years ago Mel
:D
Yeh, it seems like it was, I guess, 1972-1976, I don't remember. My first son was born in 1970 and it came when he was a little boy because I bought a metal lathe to work on that project. He and I worked on it together. Oh, it he was 5-7 so that would've made it 1976-1980 maybe. I don't know. We had a lot of fun with it.
Sorry. I wasn't trying to steal the thread. You have developed an Extremely nice robot.

Great job! May I ask where did you buy these drive trains ? Or the specification. They look like exactly what I need right now...
I got those motors at a surplus store.I believe they are Brevel gear motors.
I know I'm late to the thread but I have to say your project looks pretty sweet!
