About Me
Formerly MarkC of robosapien.tk forums. I firsted hacked my Robosapien V1 in late 2004 and haven't done any work on him since mid 2005. This Christmas I received a Robosapien V2 and a Roboquad. I've had the chest plate off RSV2 and taken a look inside his head. Hopefully I'll post some photos and document what I've seen in there on my website.
Previous mods to Robosapien V1:
- PIC micro controller "brain" added.
- Hands swapped (left for right)
- Hand LEDs swapped out for violet ones
- LCD installed in chest cavity along with dual PIC micros
- "Alarm Clock" Robosapien is born.
- Fried orginal Processor and was subsequently replaced.
- Mapped circuit boards into circuit diagrams and parts lists.
What might I do with Roboquad?
- PIC micro brain
- LED swap
- Install SP03 text-to-speech module
- Map circuit boards (would be interesting to see how much of the original Robosapien goes into the latest models)
- Open to suggestions...
What might I do with Robosapien V2:
- PIC micro brain
- LED swap / addition
- Map circuit boards
- Dissection tutorial
- Any other ideas?
