Animatronics

Horatio "Doc" Beardsley

Doc's head was designed and built during the first cycle of the project (November and December, 2000). The animatronic design has fourteen degrees of freedom and was completed using SolidWorks mechanical design software. Neck rotate, nod, and tilt functions were added during the second cycle. Upper eyelids were added third cycle. Doc's mechanical design utilizes Multiplex mc/V2 servo motors, the industry leader in long life and smoothness of motion.
