THE RAW BRAIN

The Raw Brain is a simple mechanism of the eye experiment. The purpose of the project was to build a classic robot head.
 

The Raw Brain can be set on the table. The robot speaks and looks around. Detects motion and distances. Does not like bright light and talking a little funny. The robot is an entertaining experiment.

The Raw Brain can also understand simple words. Currently it does not have relay outputs. So it can not turn on the lights and the equipment. However, it is possible to implement this functionality the robot.

The robot mechanism of the eye is made of simple wires and small servos. It is not the best way to make eye mechanism. Cogwheel mechanism is a better solution.


Inside the head is a LED matrix. LEDs show the simple emotion of the robot.

The robot is mainly printed on 3D printer. The robot control unit is Arduino mega. The servo module has not been used and it shows from time to time speech and movement instability.

The robot's head is bare and without protection. It belongs to the Raw Brain's style. This robot
experiment will not be published in the building instructions.


Design and implementation: Jaakko Muhonen
Year of manufacture: 2016
Central processing unit: Arduino Mega 2560 and Audeme MOVI speech synthesizer
