Re: Eye contact
She uses a Microsoft Kinect in her chest to track movement around and detect people. I guess the processing unit is a simple computer running some software built with Kinect SDK. Mechanically speaking, controlling servos with an Arduino board will do, or even easier, a Pololu Maestro board.

Nice job, merits reviving the post. If someone put together a mod kit I would go for it !BigBurrito wrote:Little late for the party, here is my project

Thanks, good stuff here, now just got to get a 3D printercraig22835 wrote:The InMoov open source project has a 3d printable eye assembly. Do a search for "inmoov eye assembly". It is compact enough that it should fit. They have Jaw and neck control setups but that would require major surgery on the doll. You probably should find quiet servos because the noise would get annoying.

Re: Eye contact
I was just looking at ebay the other day and the price have of 3D printers has come down remarkably.Thanks, good stuff here, now just got to get a 3D printer
Starting at around $200 including delivery, all in Australian dollars to Australia.
Im sure you don't want to jump on the first one you see, as speed is an issue and printing size maximum as well. But Im optimistic that I will probably spend about $400 on one in the near future. Prices are always coming down on these things. There are still the higher end ones of thousands, but you don't want a rolls royce to go to the shops, when a Chinese Ford will do the trick.

Re: Eye contact
Might be usable for a creature doll.
The eyes move in parallel, but unfortunately move randomly and do not track. There are some animatronic people working on that though.
The eyes in the video are the top quality and require a Raspberry Pi3 to operate. There is a slightly lower quality that can operate off a mini controller and battery and the whole package run about $100.00. Many holiday prop makers are going this route vs servo operated eyes and blinking mechanics. Certainly not museum or movie quality solutions.
