Showing my R2's electronics before I skin him. He has two Arduinos (one Mega, one Duemilanove), a Devantech MD22 motor controller and a wireless Nunchuk on the same i2c bus. The Duemilanove has a S65 shield with a "high-resolution" display that shows what's going on in the machine. Sensors are 5x ultrasound for collision avoidance (1 currently broken) plus what's in the legs that aren't currently mounted. Sorry about the low light video, a better one will follow once I have all ultrasound sensors mounted and the droid skinned.

  • Did you make ALL of yourself, like created the PCP's yourself?

  • @Andriaccini No, most of the PCBs were bought. I just did the cabling and the programming.

  • They're easy to assemble but I cut every piece by hand... not so easy ;-)

  • Oh that display is cute! Love the poly styrene frame. Those appear to be a pretty easy frame to assemble but then Todd does all the hard work LOL.
