How To: Easy Blinking Animatronic Eye

  • Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
  • Here's a video on how I made Corvus' eye(s). The eye I made in this video was for a version of Corvus--one with a light up eye--that I never finished. Instead, I used the mechanism I made here to give him a separate, functioning eyelid (rather than the painted on one I used in the first version and in this video). Then, I was able to tape the eye to a small servo beneath it to make it turn left and right.
    If you want to make two eyes, you can use this exact same method! Just put two eyes on the dowel side by side instead of one.
    Materials:
    -Ping Pong Ball
    -Paint, Gloss
    -Thin Dowel
    -Popsicle Sticks (to hold up eye)
    -Small Rubber Bands (I used the ones left over from when I had braces. Those are super handy for small puppets and projects like this!)
    -Jewelry Wire
    -Servo
    -and you'll need to have a drill!

    Do you know where I can purchase all the servos/electronics used here and any specific codes to use? Love Corvus so much!

    • @CatsMenagerie
      @CatsMenagerie  5 лет назад +3

      Thanks!! I’m glad you like him!
      I normally get my servos from servocity.com. This website is a great place to buy all things servo related.
      As for the coding/other electronics, I normally use this setup: ruclips.net/video/eh7ob9cQmfU/видео.html to puppeteer animatronics for videos like this.
      For Corvus’s electronics that allow him to be “mobile” (not have to be plugged into a laptop or wall socket,) I use an Arduino powered by a portable phone charger. He’s been through three different circuit setups and programs but I plan on releasing a video talking about his latest setup soon!
      In the meantime, adafruit.com is a great place to go for electronics and tutorials so I recommend checking them out!

    You can make the eyeball still, and make a plastic piece for blinking effect. You won’t need shadow painting skills (yes, that’s a thing).
