I was inspired by a Thingiverse<\/a> model that a friend of myn had asked me to print for him.\u00a0 I wanted to make my own version, but with a few electronics added.\u00a0 I had a long list of goals in mind, however I only managed to achieve a few of them.<\/p>\n I didn’t achieve all of these things, in fact after I figured out what I felt was the bare minimum (bold in the list above) I kind of drew the line there.\u00a0 Essentially I tried to make my robot as closely as possible to scale.\u00a0 This is my first time ever doing anything like this, the only experience I had coming into this project is my familiarity with Arduino.<\/p>\n I’ve never tried to replicate something from tv show\/movie before so trying to figure this out is first.\u00a0 I started by googling the average size of a brick of butter as the robot is shown beside a brick of butter.\u00a0 I never really found a consistent answer, 3x3x8 inches seemed to be the most common answer.\u00a0 The bricks of butter I buy (Gay Lea) are about 2.7×2.7×5 inches here in Ontario.\u00a0 In the TV show the brick of butter looked quite elongated so I felt the 3x3x8 was the correct size to scale thing to.\u00a0 So I printed off a few frames showing the robot and brick of butter to find my scale, then took measurements using my trusty master craft caliper.\u00a0 Using these measurements I created my model in Fusion 360 (startup license).<\/p>\n I think this is everything anyways<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3D Files Complete<\/a><\/p>\n Arduino Program v1<\/a><\/p>\n\n
