  Animatronic Head

  Computer controlled animatronic head. My first proper atempt at animatronics, before this i'd only done a set of eyes! It has a fiber-glass core, silicone skin and glass eyes. SSC32 servo controller board runs the 7 servos. the blue flashes are LEDs under the skin.

  My first Animatronic head

  My Integrated Test ( or GIP). This was my final project in high school. Im proud to say it turned out quite fine and it turned a few heads on its own ;) it has the most basic program i could think of , just to prove all of its functions work. it says: "Hello my friend, how are you? My name is SIMA" if your interested ill answer any questions etc on construction or design, fire away ;) i dont take credit for the basic design of the head, since its so basic anyone could design it, though most features are my own ( occasionally as a last resort , like the jaw)

  StarWars Animatronic Alien Head Lipsynch programming

  Almost completed lipsynch recording of Nute Gunray Mask worn by actor Silas Carson for StarWars epIII Revenge of the Sith. Gilderfluke software and Interface designed by Greg allows performance to be edited with graphical motion curves and refined in the same manner as 3D animation. A few words still needed refinement at this stage. Conversion to youtube format drops frames and synch. Mechs built be Sonny Tilders. Skin is painted foam latex rubber for lightness, but heavier silicone rubber would be equally effective. As often happens in animatronics, performances programmed to a specific voice track are regularly overdubbed with completely different dialogue, resulting in the character looking like a chinese actor speaking in Cantonese with English plastered over the top. This is a common reason for animatronic lip synch looking poor on film. If you take a scene from "the incredibles" and overdub with dialogue from "A bug's life" you will get a similar result
