Inspiration for Animatronic rig
For my tech art final for my first semester, we were asked to do a personal project. After going to one of the Disney theme parks I was inspired to try and build an animatronic rig. I wanted to build the infrastructure of the robot, and then after skinning it use that to "push" the skin of the face.
After doing some research I found this animatronic created by Disney for one of the Avatar rides.
The first challenge I wanted to tackle was creating the jaw movement. I wanted to create these two mechanical joints that not only work together, but also only have one degree of freedom.
