 Introduction

 The first use of Audio-Animatronics was

for Walt Disney's Tiki Room in Disneyland.
 Animatronics is the use of mechatronics to
create machines which seem animate
rather than robotics, it include the creation
of animals, plants and even mythical
creatures.

FORMATION OF
ANIMATRONIC
S
 Design Process
 Sculpting
 Mold making
 Armature Fabrication
 Costuming
 Programming
Design Process:
During the design process ,the client and
company will decide what the character will be,
its appearance and total number of moves,
quality of moves and what specific move will
be.

Sculpting:
Responsible for converting two
dimensional ideas into three
dimensional forms.
Mold making:
This department creates the mold that will
ultimately produce the character skins.
Molds can be hard or soft, single or
multiple
and Reusable or non-reusable.

Armature Fabrication:
Various body armatures are being created and are
assembled in the welding metal-fabricating areas.
Costuming:
The costume, if there is one, is
usually tailored to the character and
its movements.

Programming:
Programming is the final step, and for
some animations it is most rewarding.
Programming can be done either at the
manufacturing facility or at the final
installation site.
Applications of Animatronics:
•Used in field of entertainment.
•Make all kind of modern movies and
give special effects and also mythical
creatures.
•Used in Disneyland to entertain
visitors.

Conclusion

 Animatronics refers to
the use of robotic devices to emulate a human or
an animal, or to bring realistic features to an
otherwise inanimate object.
 Modern animatronics have found extensive uses in
film special effects and theme parks and have, since
its inception, been mostly used as a fun show.
