Cool Robot Decoration Submissions

I WANT TO EMPHASIZE: I am not speaking on behalf of SIGBots or their wiki team for this, as an alumni a year removed I’m doing this unsanctioned but it’s probably to the benefit of the project as a whole.

I’m starting this thread because I’m sure some of you guys have clicked on this article and noticed the lack of… content whether it’s images or even text:

I want to change that, please send images of robot decorations of different types and I will try to add them to the robot decorations articles. Especially if there’s some unique legality to them (LED strips, different material, etc.), please provide a short explanation to them so we can crowd source this article!

The more variety the better! Can’t wait to fill out this article and cross it off the TODO list :slight_smile: .

This is a pretty good example of decorational sideplates I did for one of the bots I built last year.

Hi Adi,

Thanks for the submissions, do you have higher quality versions of this? Some of these seem to be a little desaturated.

Really appreciate the images!

I like this, is there any other description you’d like to add to this image (techniques you used, stuff you did in the process, tips and tricks)?

Thanks a ton :slight_smile:

Love the LED Usage!

Any tips or tricks you’d like to add to these images? (especially since these need to be coded).

Appreciate the submission :).

For the sideplates, we cricut cut vinyl stickers out of gold, in the shapes we needed. We then placed them on cut precolored polycarbonate pieces, in this case black, and put identical, decorational transparrent polycarb over it and screwed it together to protect the cricut stickers. Its a bit heavy but the pattern is 100% permanent;

All credit given to sylvie for this amazing guide: Addressable LED Control on the V5 | sy1vi3 and using sylib simplified the coding alot.
