I recently made Wolverine Claws which are triggered by a deep learning model that uses machine vision to look at my facial expression. Now it's time to test some brain-computer interfaces from openBCI to see how easy it would be to control robotics and prosthetics. I've managed to pinpoint specific places in my motor cortex, but I think we'll need a slightly different electrode mount on a headset to use free thought to control anything.

XROBOTS

Former toy designer, current YouTube maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.

XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
