INTRODUCTION The first animatronics created by Disney are
the Enchanted Tiki Birds., Disneyland in 1963.The following are the creation of animatronics
First use of Audio-Animatronics Using digital controls Tones were recorded on the tape,which on
playback would cause a metal reed to vibrate The vibrating reed would close a circuit and
thus operate a relay. The relay sent a pulse of energy(electricty)to
the figure’s mechanism which would cause a pneumatic value to operate,which resulted in the action,like the opening of a bird’s beak
At air pressure
ANIMATRONICSAnimatronics is a type of special
effect which involves mechanized creature like imaginary animals to make them alive.
HISTORY•1961 – Walt Disney coins the term audio-animatronics and begins developing modern animatronics technology•1963 – The first animatronics created by Disney are the Enchanted Tiki Birds., Disneyland•1963 – The first animatronics figure of a person is created and is Abraham Lincoln•1993 (1993) – The largest animatronics figure ever built is the T. rex for the movie, Jurassic Park.•2008 (2008) – Mr. Potato Head at the Toy Story exhibit features lips with superior range of movement to any other animatronics figure previously. Disney's Hollywood Studios
FORMATION OF ANIMATRONICSStep 1:DesigningStep 2:SculptingStep 3:Mold MakingStep 4:Armature FabricationStep 5:CostumingStep 6:Programming
DESIGNI NG
Cllient and the company developing the animatronics decide what the character will be,its apperance total number of moves,quality of moves and what each specific move will be.Budjets,timelines etc.
SCULPTING
Converting two-dimensional ideas into three-dimensional forms. This team can work from photos Artwork videos models, statuttes and similar likenesses.
MOLD
MAKING
This department crates the molds that will ulimately produce the charctr skis. Molds can be soft or hard,single or multiple pieces,and reusable or non-reusable After the mold is finished and cured,it is ready for skin making.Fiberglass shells are simultaneously being laid up to from the body and limb shapes.
ARMATURE
FABRICATION
o Each individual parts requires a custom design and fabrication.o Each of the robots movement axis point must have an industrial rated bearing to provide action and long life.o The technicians select those components carefully in order to ensure the durablity and long life
COSTUMING
The outlift has to allow for easy access to the character’s operating mechanisms.It must also “look” normal after movemnet has taken place.
The costume must be designed to provide hundreds or thousands of operations without wearing out and without causing the skin areas(i.e around the necks or wrists)to breakdown as well.
PROGRAMMIN G
Programming is the final step,someanimations is the most
rewarding.ProgrammIng can be done either at the
manufacturingfacility or at the inatallation site. In programming,all the indvidual
moves arecoordinated into complex animated
actionsbrings “life”
MORDERN ANIMATRONICSGAMES: In 2014, popular horror video-game "Five Nights at Freddy's" portrayed four murderous animatronic characters named Bonnie the Bunny, Chica the Chicken, Foxy the Pirate Fox, and their leader Freddy Fazbear, who were the main antagonists in the game. A sequel, "Five Nights at Freddy's 2" includes more animatronic beings, all determined to slaughter the player.
ADVERTISMENT:The Slowskys was an advertising campaign for Comcast Cable's XfinitybroadbandInternet service. The ad features two animatronic turtles, and it won the gold Effie Award in 2007
EDUCATION FIELDStudents achieving a bachelors
degree in robotics commonly complete courses in Mechanical engineering•Industrial robotics•Mechatronics systems•Modeling of robotics systems•Robotics engineering•Foundational theory of robotics
