Version 2 - animatronic T-800 Terminator skull with face tracking

This is my Version 2 animatronic T-800 Terminator skull. With the included instructions, you can build one too!

Key Improvements from Version 1:
Assembly with fasteners – No more glue required.

Redesigned head tilting mechanism – A single large servo in the head replaces two servos in the base, reducing the total servo count.

Improved teeth design – Newly remodeled, separate teeth for a more realistic look.

New base design – Enhanced stability and aesthetics.

Almost every part has been improved or adjusted, making V1 and V2 incompatible with each other.

You can build the skull in two configurations:

Face-tracking version – Requires a Raspberry Pi.

Basic version – Moves the head randomly without face tracking.

The Raspberry Pi image link is in the RaspberryPi_Image_Link.txt file.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Enjoy your build!

If you'ed like you can check out V1 because it has among other things a different base, neck, teeth and mechanics for the neck movement.

Please not that most V1 and V2 parts are not compatible!

Edit 30.05.2025
If you have a printer with a 220x220 mm build volume, I have added the file A_01_base_220_220.stl. The original model was slightly too large, so I adjusted the back slightly to make it fit
