3D Print + Resin treatment as I want to see the effect of applying Resin to 3D printed parts, It was airbrushed with gold paint afterwards to test the paint holding properties of resin, which to my surprise, is good!
after attaching it onto the base of the Robot, this case serve as a protection of accidental dislodge of the pins (while still maintaining the function to switch out the board) from the arduino as well as adding a slight water resistance to it,(you never know if the visitor will drop a cup of water onto my robot during the show)
Parts Strengthening to make sure nothing come loose:
original connection of the aluminium profile. 4 screws with spring washer at each connections on the 90 degree joint.
added a T plate to secure the joint, total screws with spring washer = 8, and it is structurally stable (the screws hold all axis of vibrations.)
Experimental Head for the robot:
3D Paper Model, cut them and stick it together
Dog head. Why a dog? because dog is human’s best friend and you’ve heard of search dog, guide dog, which is exactly what my robot is about, and it is cute.
after cutting the eye out and replace with the LED matrix with arduino nano. i would say it made it really interesting to look at just with the eye that moves.
Plastic model building from the Japan Research Trip:
To experiment with speed and delay of Lattepanda with unity to control arduino, which is not bad!
