OctoBouncer-BalanceTable

Saw the OctoBouncer on YouTube a few years ago and finally decided to make a kit to help people afford to build one for themselves.  I have mine mostly built-up, but my procrastination to coding the software leaves it collecting dust until I get better motivated.  I figure I'll use the PIXY CMUcam5 on mine, but do plan to test it with a HuskyLens and PIXY2 CMUcam5 too.   IF anybody wants a different camera mount contact me and I can design a 3D printable mount for you.  I love 3D CAD modeling.   The "RoboGuts™ S.T.E.A.M. Education Program" http://www.R2Pv1.com/  can be used to teach the entire product manufacturing process that can be completed at home with a small desktop 3D printer.  ° Controlling various electronic devices, sensors and motors ° Using different micro-controller chips in circuit designs ° Structured Programming style Coding using BASIC and c languages ° Phonemes for speech and song ° 3D Printing to make mostly snap together or very easy to assemble robot toys and other robotic/animatronic systems ° Art for finishing and painting plastic parts ° Mechanical systems assembling the various "X-Projects" and X-Project displays ° Theater Arts to write short video scripts for the projects (robotic actors) to act out little skits
