DIY Animatronic | AnimaMaestro Project Overview

For many years, inspired by Walt Disney, I’ve been making my own animatronic!

Using 3D modeling, 3D printing, DC and servo motors, gears, ball bearings, bolts and nuts, I’m creating and assembling all parts of the figure: eyes mechanism, hands mechanism, neck mechanism using a Stewart Platform, and much more.

I am also creating all the electronic circuits and printed circuits boards (PCB), using microcontrollers, CPLDs, and other electronic components that are required to drive servo motors, drive LEDs, drive NeoPixel strips.

I am also developing my own animatronic animation software application for animatronic control of the figure’s actuators through keyframing and interpolation.

So if you are passionate about electronics, robotics, software programming, and want to know how to get into animatronics, you’ve come to the right place! Welcome to AnimaMaestro!
