  • I combined an Arduino Uno, a couple of cheap IR cameras and a servo to have a Grim Reaper's head follow people as they passed by.

    Great use of the IR cameras, and a nice visualization and analysis to find a way to track the warm bodies. I love how you combined many different skills to make this an amazing and unique Halloween prop.

    This is fantastic. I can't believe there are so few views! I'd love to build this, but at my current skill level would certainly be a challenge.

    Just spectacular work! Thank you. Been working on a similar problem and had hit several dead ends. Did not know about the ir array chips which is awesome. Thanks a million!

    Great video! I'm still learning electronics so I only know the basics of it. Always liked this kind of thing. Your creation gave me so much inspiration to study even more :)

    That's really clever. I've thought about doing something similar with IR LEDs and phototransistors, but this is a nice twistt.

    Hello ! Great animatronic ! Could you share the STL files for all the 3D parts please ?

    This is awesome. I am new to the Arduino game, and was curious if this effect would be achievable with some PIR sensors instead of a camera. Thanks for a thorough video!

    Are the STL files for your printed parts available. This is a great mechanism that could be used in a bunch of places. I'd be willing to pay for them even if they are on a pay site.

    Great Job! Love it! I would love to teach kids doing some animatronics for Halloween. Would be great if you can share the 3D models to take a look further. Would you be so kind? Thanks in advance and congratulation!

    Hi, congratulations, very beautiful, impressive, I'll try to build it... do you write the program for arduino, is it there? Thank you

      Christian,
      Thank you. Check out the google drive link in the description. It has the program (which Arduino calls a sketch) and the library files needed. Good luck!

    I am really trying hard to get the circuit and program to work. I have the new sensor and wondering if I have them oriented correctly. If anyone is still reading there response could you help me out

      @trkeenan2,
      Yes I’m still here. Describe what your symptoms are and I’ll try to help. Though I’ll be honest, this project was at the limit of my skills and I’m a little surprised I got it to work.

    • @trkeenan2
      @trkeenan2 4 місяці тому

      This project is way beyond my limits. I am very impressed with what you have figured out with the programming. I have the project sort of working. It is not very responsive and does not track me at all. When I put my finger over each sensor the servo will move in that direction. I am wondering if I have the pair of sensors angled correctly with each other. They are side by side and close to a 30 degree angle. I do get the array data on screen which tells me the sensors are working. Do you have any ideas what may be wrong?

    • @68percentwater
      @68percentwater  4 місяці тому

      @@trkeenan2 The way I figured out I had the right orientation was to add a couple of lines in the code to write the array values to the screen and then passed my hand through the field of view and watched what values changed. The first time I did this I found my rows and columns were transposed.

    • @trkeenan2
      @trkeenan2 3 місяці тому

      I got it to work. My sensors were rotated by 90 degrees. Can you tell me how you figured out the 30 degree cant on each sensor.? I am trying to understand how to mount them and their position to each other. Thanks so very much for inspiring me on this project!
