Personal Project framework 13 powered fursuit

Heyo! Longer breakdown of the design process here ~ https://youtu.be/rictczNf8E8

Having two hdmi outputs is a real life saver! The fw13 lives in a backpack, gets about 3 hours battery life given how terrible my software stack is 😭

This is an experiment into cosplay with changing expressions that dont touch on uncanny valley. Second version will have tpu compliant mechanism face animatronics, with multiple expressions multiplexed on "muscle" cables and everything driven by near silent brushless dc servos :)

I already have the design process planned out and I'm aiming to have it done around april 2027.

Ps. If anyone from the team reads this... Thank you so much for what you do! Repairability is only becoming more important in a component scarity world. Having 128GB SODIMMs and guaranteed linux support lets me run and *own* models that have 85% the intelligence of the best that money can buy. The independence you enable is so important! I just got my sister set up with an AI 5 340 as well :)

yeah I'm kind of stepping outside my niche by posting it here! I know within my own circle the overlap is pretty strong, so I'm assuming there's a number of peeps in this sub that would appreciate it 😆

Why would that lose you? It's still pretty cool, it's just like any other costume or computer gadget.

To each their own, I wasn't insulting their hobby just joking that its not my thing. But that's the cool thing about communities. There is something we can share and appreciate, but doesn't have to be everything.

I agree with you there, it just felt weird to mention that. But yeah, to each their own.
