FS Mechatronic Head

The highly versatile and modular Future Synthesis Mechatronic Head is based on the Future Synthesis principle of bringing together the best and most accessible of what is available:
- Open source programming
- Open source software
- Open source hardware
- 3D printable parts
Technical Details:
Skull (real size 1:1):
- 3D designed parts
- Printable parts with any standard 3D printer
- Modular design
- Easily assembled and disassembled
- Flexible 3D design that allows for any modification
Inside skull:
- 4 Li-ion Batteries packed inside
- 2 standard USB chargers for the 4 batteries
- Each USB port charges 2 batteries (2 for electronics and 2 for motors)
- Headphone Jack port by raspberry (output)
- Most raspberry ports are accessible
- 6 or 8 motors
- 6 motor design includes 6 degrees of freedom
- Each eyelid moves independently
- Eyes: Sideways motion
- Eyes: Up and down motion.
- Mouth (1 degree of freedom)
- Neck (1 degree of freedom) 6 or 8 motors
- 2 extra degrees of freedom (optional) for eyebrows.
Electronic interface:
- Raspberry Pi 3B+
- Arduino mega Pro
- PCB (Hat) Raspberry-Arduino mega Pro (By F Synthesis)
- Accessibility to Arduino-Raspberry ports and interfaces
- Arduino:
- PCB HAT connecting TX-RX (Arduino-Raspberry)
- Easy access (back cover) to mini USB (programmable)
- Raspberry:
- Easy access to 4 USB ports (through front cover)
- Easy access to mini USB power and SD card slot (through back cover)
- Easy access to audio connector (audio jack)
- Easy access to HDMI connector
- Microphone (and audio sound card – USB -16 kHz sampling to 48 kHz)
Interfaces to Bluetooth – Internet
- Easy connection to any Bluetooth device directly through Raspberry
- Possibility to connect to the internet and internet services (standard Raspberry)
- Connection to phone and phone applications through Raspberry
- Examples are the VNC app that allows controlling the raspberry through the phone
Programming possibilities:
- Programming Interface:
- Future Synthesis provides an offline (Tensor flow) kit for speech to text (200-300 words at a time)
- Python 3 scripts provided to control motors
- Simple Architecture provided to give “autonomy” to the head
- Arduino C, scripts provided to control motors
Mechatronics:
- Possibility to control motors through Arduino (C-Arduino) scripts
- Control of ports via GPIO (Raspberry pins)
