Advanced py drivers

I began a Project with an industrial ro-bot. The goal was more or less the same as with caterpillar, animate the whole thing with as few ipo (s) as posible. So naturally the position of the arm and the hand are driven with an empty.

But each of the direction (x, y and z) of the Empty drivers a sepárate function of the robot.

My problem now, is that im far far away from being finished, and i have abso-lutely no time at the momento todo work on it. I am not like Andrew price who is 100% a blenderguru, but i Will try the following bien ;-) next week i Will corganise a Blender-day in switzerland (for 10 children), details for which are on blendernation:
Blender is with me day and night, but i cant do everything at the same time, so if you want todo help por favor reach out todo the people and let them know that they can follow the work on the french blend-erclan.

I have a lot of Mechanical tests, but nothing ready todo show. So i am providing you a (*.blend) file todo play with, which have something like advanced pydrivers theme.

The principle is todo drive constraints with mathematical formula todo decompose the only x movement of the Empty master in defined steps.
With this method i can drive a Génova drive in real time, and a Mechanical diferential with a brake system at the same time, by just add-ing a very simple todo Rig a connecting rod with 3 Bones and IK (just bonus).

Everything is real time, that means no leg in animation while running it at Slow, fast, estop, reverse. With every element perfectly synchronised, and playing with only one lonely ipo (locx).

Blender file is not configured todo render a WoW image or animation, it is just ready todo play with Empty master and observe what happens.

Visuals objects are on layer 11-14, and armatures and empties on 1-4. info@mcblyver, ch.
