Tutorial Sugestion - Telemetry Puppets and Suits
Hi there Stan Winston School of Character Arts! I have a bit of a suggestion for you guys! I'm a huge fan of your animatronics lessons. I think that the next animatronics lesson you guys make should be on making telemetry suits, like the one used for the puppetry of Johnny 5 in the Short-circuit movies.
I also think you guys should show us how to design a custom servo-control system. (like the one that the Jim Henson creature shop used for movies like Labyrinth, Neverending Story 3, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)

Would really love to see a tutorial about telemetry suites.
1. Flex Sensors. Great for putting at a joint to tell who much it has moved.

And this excellent website that shows how to use conductive fabric and thread to make a range of sensor related wearable items.
