DJ R-3X Animatronic
Robot Build
Under our new INNOVENTIONS division, CAPED is designing, manufacturing, and programming our very own audio animatronic of DJ R-3X from Star Wars Galaxy's Edge.
Animatronic Synopsis
"Hello there! This is DJ R-3X from CAPED! This may be your first time here, and its mine too! As I'm the club's brand new audio animatronic. Based on Captain Rex from the original Star Tours attraction and DJ R-3X from Star War Galaxy's Edge, I'm a to-scale replica of the real deaaaallll... Sorry, folks. I'm still getting used to my programming!"
Overview
With the initiation of our brand new projects division, INNOVENTIONS, we have taken on the exciting challenge of designing and building a fully operational audio animatronic. Led by D'Anna Jennings and Charlie Carter, a team of students from a wide array of differing majors worked with designing parts with CAD, 3D printing, prototyping, electronic assembly, programming, and decorating the robot to be as accurate to the real animatronic as possible. With several axises of motion and quirky audio responses, this animatronic is ready to greet guests and boogie!
