Voice Activated Inspector Gadget Hat -- Episode 470

While many characters sparked DJ’s imagination for invention and quest for technical skills, one of the earliest was everyone’s favorite 1980’s cyborg policeman: RoboCop, er uh Inspector Gadget! While Inspector Gadget’s gadgets certainly obeyed the laws of cartoon physics rather than real physics, they’re just beyond the edge of plausibility. So in a year long preparation for Halloween 2021, DJ is setting out to make a voice activated hat that can summon real gadgets from his head. No plastic surgery necessary. Some assembly required.

    Great work DJ, loved the copter bit and the hinge setup of the crown flaps is pretty ingenious

    This project is pretty awesome.  That servo motion visualization is neat. Being newb in mechanical design and CAD, I would love content walking through the 3d modeling and design process.  Or if possible, sharing the raw Fusion360 project would be super valuable, and we can then retrace steps and build on it - I don't get that from the step files.  Thank you so much
