Video: Lego built Wall-E robot clone with eye movements!!!
Check out this Wall-E robot clone built of Lego! Though this robot is made of Lego and won’t look or sound as genuine as the one you’ve seen in the movie, it’s always incredible (I think) to see people bring Lego to life simply by putting abit of brain power and engineering skill into the good old plastic blocks…
Youtube user Bazmarc, a 41-year old from Canada who works in IT is a serious Lego fan who enjoys Lego Robotics building and programming. Just very recently he posted a series of videos showing his totally cool implementation of the WALL-E robot constructed completely from stock Lego NXT Mindstorms robot system parts. Not only is the robot realistic, it also features some very emotional and touching eye movements.
Bazmarc’s robot creation does use some third party components, like Mindsensors and HiTechnic - both Lego certified though!
According to some comments on his videos, the robot uses…
“1 NXT with rechargable pack, 3 Servo Motors, 4 PF motors, 2 IR receiver, 1 UltraSonic sensor, 1 sound sensor, 1 IRlink, 1 NXTservo module and 1 mini RC servo, 10 AA batteries and Lego from the Bulldozer #8275 and other parts from various technic sets.”
Here’s a video explaining just how his robot Wall-E’s eyes work…
And here is a demo video of the robot itself…
Bazmarc has done a number of revisions to his robot since it was first completed, you can check out these videos over at his YouTube channel here…
