is this PLA?

Just an FYI for anyone putting this together in 2024/2025: The servos were rotating in the oppotite direction indicated in the video, so in the blink() function I reversed the order to openEye first, then closeEye. As if that wasn't counterintuitive enough, the top and bottom eyelids were reversed in the 1eyeButtonBlink script, AND the open and close positions were backwards (since the open/close script order was switched.) I really like this kit and realize I didn't pay anything for it, so hopefully this caveat helps everyone!

what is the price?

👍...

Well, I feel like an idiot. I didn't check the volts and amps on my power supply and totally blew out my servo driver. It made a helluva pop and there is now brown cotton wadding everywhere!

Como puedo imprimir ese modelo en mi 3d ???

Where did you get the eyeballs? I found some that look similar on temu?

sad you used an apple device

I'm creating a charity in Chicago, can I purchase a set? Although I'd love to do it myself, I don't own the proper equipment. I'll be retrofitting the kit to be manual, used for a blinking baby orangutan puppet, but I need the docking stations, and the blinking eyelids.

Can I test this via the pc and not via bread board? skip the bread board settings?

Is there a way i can do these tests from the computer rather than wiring up buttons on a bread board?

First, Hello I love that I came across this and would love for this to be my first kit. Secondly, your kit link is broken 404 error. Would you please reupload? My goal is to build a little robot friend down the road when my skills improve. I think this would be a perfect start.

Are the files still available anywhere please

I love occasionally returning this. great stuff john!

কেনো তোর নেই কীরে

Nice tutorial! Wondering if any custom PCBs or 3D printed parts may help? Would love to sponsor! (PCBWay zoey)

The web domain is disconnected to download the code and the stl of the pieces

Hello, fantastic video, the link in the description unfortunately does not work. Could you send the correct one? Regards

This is the coolest thing. I want one on my door :D

AMAZING! would love to have a kit with a small joystick to control eye motion

Very nice video and great information thanks for sharing

how and where can I get files to print on the printer?

Hi, I am thinking about upscaling the eyeballs for a FNAF head. From my understanding of this video, I could probably use the same wire linkages if I reposition the servos right? I am thinking for the 2 eyelid servos I'll just position it to the most right limit of the eyeballs since the linkages are hooked to the side of the right side of the eyelids, but I might have to move up slightly upwards/downwards depending on where the holes are after upsizing the eyelids. I should be able to reposition the x-axis servo towards the left limit since it's hooked to the left side of the eye, but for the y-axis servo I should keep it centered since it's hooked in the center of the eyeball, right? Not sure if what I said made any sense, but hopefully you can visualize what I said and point out any misconceptions on my part before I try and print everything out. I'd probably just print the original out first and get it working before repurposing it for bigger eyes. Thanks anyway for your detailed tutorial!

I got everything running all the way through the lookXY and Lookblink functions using the buttons. However, when i use the expressioncycler, nothing happens. Do i need to do something to get the file to work once uploaded? the other files were dependent on button presses, but this should just run, right? The other issue i ran into is that the Arduino uplugged from the computer loses power. does this project require two power supplies? one for the PWM board and one for the Arduino?

Ive got everything connected I even downloaded the 'Adafruit PWM' as stated but getting this "Compilation error: 'pwm' was not declared in this scope" Error. Can anyone help me figure this out? Im so close but stuck here.

Hey john i dont know if youll see this but when i plug the servos to the board they wont move at all and i doubled checked my wirings. any possible solutions for this?

"I think I have it more or less under control, but I want to make it portable and I need you to tell me how to power said project with batteries, one for the servo board and another for the Arduino board. Thank you!"

Hi John, the etsy page says the eyeball print yourself files are "sold out". Is there anyway to get the STL files?

When will be the kit available again?

It’s possible to scale the eye up. I would like to make a single big eye, about the size of a small fist.

Otra solución.

Thanks mate, this is amazing work, and very well explained too ! 🙏

Will you be selling the 3d printed files? Currently, there isn't a listing for them on etsy. Thank you for your time!

3d design

hey john, i connected everything correctly, unfortunately my problem starts with the "eye button blinking"... the two servos move in the opposite direction. in other words, the eyes would always be closed until I press the button, then they open briefly...actually, it should theoretically work the other way around. can you help me what's wrong? Kind regards Jan

Eeee

@Johnson Strobe Do you still sell this kit?? I need One..

Code link is missing .

Absolutely amazing!!!

Any way to still get the full kit?

Thank you very much for this video, i'm so keen to start making my animatronic eyes, just one question: Is it possible control the eyes wirelessly, like using a joystick controller or maybe a glove??

How would you make it sensor activated

Do you sell these already finished? I don't have a 3D printer.

Juan,me encanta el proyecto, al final donde podemos encontrar los archivos stl, los comparte con palnos o el kit??? mil gracias

Clever idea

Is there a bigger one
