Beginner
A robot character made from empty coke cans along with servo motors. We made a prototype back in the summer (2017) and thought it would make a great robot character. We went out and bought a case of coke* and as they are emptied we kept the cans ready for construction. In order, to make the cans safe for children to handle, ring pulls can slice little fingers, we have designed inserts that pop onto the top of the cans as well as parts that house servo motors. We use three servos to control the movements, of the CokeBots arms and neck. There is also the instructions to build a non-animated version which does not use servos. Supplies: For this Instructable you will require: 23 Cans, Strong glue The 3d printed joiners, of which the files are freely available at Booting For the animatronic version you will also require: An Arduino Uno, 3 Servos (metal gear recommended), It is also recommended to use a servo driver board.
