So... yeah, I disappeared for a while. Mainly lost interest in the project, moved to 3 different continents for a while and now im back to where i started. where is that you might ask? Glad you asked! The answer is back to developing a real tickling machine. 10 years ago I started...

Here is a video of the upper body module in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prIZ57wIKjg and here is the latest update on the project: I found a way to attach servos to my bedframe, so i positioned 2 servos to each side, targeted towards the upper body. Attached 2 peacock...

Well my friends, Im glad to announce that the robot is functional. its in its early stages now, but it does the job for some parts. I modified to by adding peacock feathers to the servos. lied down shirtless on the bed on my stomach... positioned the feathers and the machine in place so the...

I was satisfied with the initial prototype, running a single servo at random. Once i attached a feather and then a paintbrush to it; its seemed that a tickling robot was a feasible concept to build! Allow me to expand on the idea of a "Bot"... A Robot is a self sustaining device that has...

I managed to run the high voltage servo, it is a continuous rotation servo. I found that it will go back and forth, but eventually keeps shifting positions until it does a full rotation. I decided to change back to the micro servo, modified the program a little, and i am glad to say that it...

So today I started playing around with the items i have to figure out how it works. I Have an Arduino UNO board, got a big supply of resistors and capacitors and other components, and a bunch of servos and motors. Considering this is my first time to actually build an electronic circuit...

Im trying to build a tickling machine, something that has been a fantasy for most of us ticklephiles. After following a few threads on the topic on here and on different forums, i decided to venture into robotics arena and try to build one myself. Utilizing my creative problem solving...
