Thanks mate, you are sooo right, damn my dyslexic-ness

This is amazing, and has made my day!

I was really lucky for Ford UK to send me this set early to review, it comes out 1st of March, cost £12.99 $14.99 and has 203 parts

I actually want the eyes to change colour but switching modes on the sensor is slow, need to find a different way to do it Also, what would people suggest about the base of the robot / legs, to me its poo! Would people box it up?

lol

It was a bit wobbly, on Sunday I stopped moving it about so much. However remember its 5 foot tall, the fact it never snapped is beyond me :) It could also move a lot faster on the floor but that caused even more wobbly I plan to do another video on what worked and what did not, the lower body (e.g the wobbly bit) was the bit I was most unhappy with. The arms and head worked perfectly :) I would like a rotating torso next :)

I made one women nearly scream as she never knew it moved and then it suddenly looked at her, people where really impressed with how fast its head / arms moved

So I managed to get version 0.1 working for a LEGO Charity show called Bricktastic. It went down really really well. Videoed this when no one was about

Did some more work, its now looking like (sorry its a bit dark) The show is tomorrow!

Yeah, so I use them to make the arms move fast :)

The EV3 Bricks are required to counterbalance the arms

So thanks for the feedback, here is the latest update

Thats a bloody good idea!

Here is how the head is looking

I have one of them, its kinda works

So here is the current update, it needs to be finished in under 2 weeks. It uses Lejos 0.91

Sorry for the delay, full speed ahead! Here is a demo of a arm working

Oh that guy is one of my fav builders, so awesome!

OK, has anyone done a nice Mindstorms head, I remember seeing a Chappie one

Thanks for the feedback, So far I have only done structure so looks and improvements to come :) I am going to keep this going until people are not interested I will probably do a video of testing movement, arm, tablet, and head work. Then we can start looking in to the robot seeing things (OpenCV, PixyCam) Whats peoples views on either making a LEGO Head or one with a InMoov face (example below)

The Android tablet is not LEGO but yes except the Rotacaster wheels, its 100% LEGO, not sure on weight

So this year I want to make an intelligent LEGO Robot that's the size of a human. While I build it I want to take videos of its progress and get feedback etc Here is my progress so far

Just a quick Friday night hack. The 3 LEGO Mindstorms motors are connected to the hand via fishing line. Usually this would use RC Servo's I think I need to loosen up the joins a bit but the Motors did a good job. Programmed in LEGO EV3-G For more information about the awesome inMoov project please check http://inmoov.fr/

I can't wait to get my hacking hands on it!

So I usually review and build Mindstorms but I got sent this and thought I would do a unboxing, I am not sure if this has already gone round, t-shirt is epic
