ROBOTIC LION DANCE

In early september, we were tasked to mimic a lion dance performance using robots and we  purchased Jimu robot from amazon build it. We did some minor customisation to make the robot have better balance and looks more alike to a lion. Jo made some customised movement using Jimu app to program for the performance to mimic an actual lion dance performance. The robot was then showcased at community centres to ministers visiting.

Video Demo             

  Hardwares

The JIMU Robot Inventor Kit has over 600 interlocking, interchangeable parts to build any one of 6 pre-designed animals. The 16 individually programmable servo motors allow you to create stunning movements using Blockly code or with the PRP (Pose, Record, Play) function. However you play, this JIMU Robot kit will provide invaluable hands-on STEM learning and endless programming fun.

Includes 675 snap-together parts, 16 smooth motion robotic servo motors, 1 main control box, 1 lithium-ion battery, power adapter, and quick start guide.

Servomotor:

Each servo has an Identification number to distinguish it from other servos, it also has rotatable rudders and each servo has 3-pin ports. Energy and information can be transmitted between the Main control box and servos.

Connections (Wireless):

Wireless is a term used to describe telecommunications in which electromagnetic waves (rather than some form of wire) carry the signal over part or all of the communication path. Some monitoring devices, such as intrusion alarms, employ acoustic waves at frequencies above the range of human hearing; these are also sometimes classified as wireless.

Bluetooth Compatibility: Bluetooth 4.0

The key new feature of Bluetooth 4.0 is its low-energy technology. This lets device manufacturers replace proprietary sensor technology with Bluetooth, which is a more widely adopted standard. If these same devices had Bluetooth 4.0, they could speak to any Bluetooth 4.0 device, be it phone or computer.

Batteries (Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery):

A lithium-ion battery or Li-ion battery (abbreviated as LIB) is a type of rechargeable battery in which lithium ions move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode during discharge and back when charging. Li-ion batteries use an intercalated lithium compound as one electrode material, compared to the metallic lithium used in a non-rechargeable lithium battery.

Lithium-ion batteries are common rechargeable batteries for portable electronics, with a high energy density, tiny memory effect and low self-discharge. LIBs are also growing in popularity for military, battery electric vehicle and aerospace applications. (Wikipedia, 2018)

 Software

Jimu Robots uses drag and drop programming app to control the individual servo motors simultaneously or individually.

Drag-and-drop interlocking blocks of customizable sequences as shown below are used to create the Lion Dance.

 In addition to that are also pre-programmed sequence in the app itself made easy for users to interact with the robot without programming themselves.

Each button represent a sequence of movementButton represent sequence of actions also can be created user themselves

It’s Story Time!🙂 About a week ago I was walking through a parking lot and spotted this white van with a smiley face on the side. Obviously I had to stop and take a photo. While shooting a superzoom the owner, an older guy who is a Vietnam veteran walks up and says hello. He immediately pulls this button out of his pocket and hands it to me. I responded by saying something like: You don’t even understand that you’ve probably found the person who makes, has, and is the most interested in buttons in a several hundred mile radius. He also gave me a business card with guess what logo on it. I told him I would send him a button package as a trade in the near future. I was super psyched with this encounter!!! Anyone know where these buttons with safety pin backs come from? I don’t think I have another like it.❓ #buttons #pins #pinbackbuttons #custombuttons #smiley #smileyface #happyface #buttoncollection #buttoncollecting #strangersinwhitevans #payitforward #buttontrade #vietnamveteran #movementbuttons #movementpinbackbuttons (at Northport, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8HXPisncFS/?igshid=1s51x2jam7k5o
