Yeah people let's keep these projects coming. I don't need much, just a photo or two and a brief description. You can go down in history when your project gets posted on the TalkBotBrain.com site as one of the first TalkBot users.

Mike2545- I finally got Youtube working and saw your video, that's a hoot! I like the Star Trek computer noises that acknowlege that it received your spoken commands. That's an excellent setup. I can put a link to your Youtube video on the site, but one thing that would be nice is a picture of the TalkBot connected to the Sayit or to PC serial etc next to the Sayit.

If anyone wants to see my Talking Skull Dice it is here;

Also I'm quite happy to help anyone make a more involved project out of their TalkBot, like a talking thermometer (there's on on that link above) or a talking clock (I have one about finished) or something like the talking door lock on
TalkBot TB_Servo1 Tutorial

I've been in the middle of about 4 commercial projects at the moment so I haven't been spending as many hours a week as I wanted on the TalkBot site, but I am continuing to check this thread to help anyone with their TalkBots.

 

Oops, I meant #66

Does anyone need any help? I'm still waiting to hear from; Allvol, Gaspode, Wombweller.

Looks like we might have lost Giftiger he seems to have been banned from the forum.

 

Been eagerly following this thread from the start waiting to see the amazing projects for halloween. Hasnt halloween passed??

 

Yes it has. It's been a pretty poor showing. 6 people accepted free products with the agreement that they would make something for halloween and post a picture and a paragraph.

Mike2545 has done something with his, Birdman has contected me and said he is doing something with his (hopefully he will post a picture soon) and the other 4 people seem to have quietly faded away...

I have some other products to do giveaways with in the future (and probably more TalkBots) and like the idea of supporting my local community (ie supporting this forum) and I can't really believe that as much as 66% of members of the forum are dishonest.

Ok halloween seems to have gone. We have all blown deadlines and I was partially at fault because I was late promoting this competition and people only got their free talkBot 10 to 12 days before Haloween. Technical people are known for blowing deadlines haha.

Come on people just make *something* with your TalkBots, anything that talks when you press a button or moves a servo under serial control etc. If I can get a picture of what you made and put it on the TalkBotBrain.com site than it won't be a total loss.

It's a fun product, it's easy to use. Connect some wires to it, load some sounds in and post a picture. Please!

 

Hehe, I actually only got mine on the Wednsday :O 4 days before :O ...and I had a test that friday
-2; for being a student and living in Canada :P

Hi all

I tested out the Talkbot via serial connection and all is well.My next step is to create a control center either from Vb. or C# not yet decided, then move on to PIC. control.I'm also looking at wireless serial connection with a pair of xbee's.

All this as to fit around my work commitments and yes I am doing an Halloween type project but unfortunately failed to get it even close,did not realise there were any time constraints!!!

MR. RB. rest-assured when I finalise what I want to do I will defo send photos.I have a to look into VB/C# coding.

I have another idea in mind for the Talkbot but I won't yet disclose.

Cheers!!

Yep I Know what youre talking about Mr RB why accept them if they knew they wouldnt have time to finish.
Its easy to say I only had 4 days but they had time while waiting for it to arrive to design and think of concept.
Your website shows the product pretty clearly so there is really no excuse but the fact they wanted a freebie.
I think its pretty lousy actually.

Hopefully now that Halloween has passed someone might come up with something special
Just PLEASE dont give up just cause Halloween has passed Im exited to see something from this.

 

There's no point crying over spilt deadlines or something liek that.

Thanks for the update Wombweller and Birdman, I'm here pretty much once a day if anyone needs help etc.

 

OK but i'm not giving up!!!
