Modern industrial robots are not human at all. Anthropomorphic robots today are used only as either toys or futuristic decorations. Making such a decoration is available to any home craftsman.
Instructions
Step 1
Use the case from the old system unit, located sideways, as the body for the robot. Leave only the power supply of all components in the chassis. Make it permanently on by connecting the green wire to the common wire.
Step 2
Make the robot's legs from two pieces of plastic water pipes with a diameter of about 100 and a length of about 500 millimeters. Attach them to the bottom of the case using brackets. Attach a wide stand to their opposite ends with the same brackets. Make sure the structure is stable.
Step 3
Make robot arms from pieces of plastic pipes of smaller diameter and length. Attach them to the body on the sides also with brackets so that the power supply is not obstructed. Wear boxing gloves on opposite ends.
Step 4
To simulate a head, glue a hollow cube with a side of 200 to 300 millimeters from a sheet of plastic. Make one of its walls removable. Attach the cube to the top wall of the case from the system unit either directly or through the floppy box, which will simulate a square robot neck.
Step 5
Stock up on bulbs designed for a voltage of 6, 3 V and a current of 0.22 A. If you connect two such bulbs in series and connect between the +5 V bus of the power supply and its common wire, each of them will have only 2.5 V. This is more than two times lower than the nominal, so it will not take very long to change the bulbs.
Step 6
Make sure to make the eyes of a robot out of two bulbs. Distribute the rest over his head, torso, arms and legs at your discretion. The main thing is not to allow short circuits and overloading the power supply.
Step 7
Make the robot speak with a mechanical voice. Take a regular harmonica and speak the desired text through it in front of the computer microphone. Record the sound file into a player with a built-in speaker. Place the apparatus inside the robot's head and start playback.
