Although, you could probably sell this and people would buy it.

“user” could be the dumbest human on the face of the planet. They make autonomous robots for IEEE contents and university engineering students work the algorithms and the hardware. It doesn’t take “pictures” and analyze that way. They use lasers range finders and radar to take a “picture” and move.

That brought a smile to my face-I love it. I have a passion for robots and that was really entertaining.
I’m wondering how much of the beat is “improv”? Different tempos? The thrill for me is when it stops beating, backs up and then you hear the beat through the speaker. Like he was savoring the past moment.

Want. This thing would be an amusement for hours; I’d run all over the house finding things for it to play! Stumbleupon is awesome.

I’d go with what MyaloMark said, and also check with SEGA, they are putting out a ton of automatons/robots as toys, and very likely have the parts on hand to put something like this together. good luck!

It has to be entirely controlled. Including the drumming just shot to look real. Scientists have tried to make robots capable of moving around the environment but takes forever to just take pictures and compile the info to just move a little then has to repeat the process.
