MindWave Cat Ears

One day, a friend of mine said, “Can you make me into a catgirl?” Somewhat foolishly, I said yes.

Months later I have, to her and my own surprise, succeeded in making a pair of mind-controlled robotic cat ears, which I present here:

MindWave Cat Ears — Prototype First Test from Josh DiMauro on Vimeo.

This is an open-source hardware project. It’s still in progress, so not everything may be up yet. I’m working on it, though.

Here is the first short video.

The arduino source code is up on github.

And makerbot-printable CAD files are on Thingiverse.

Makerbot Industries was kind enough to feature my rambling blather about the project in a blog post on their site.

Build Instructions are in progress.
