Advanced Animatronic Gorilla
Maker Faire Bay Area 2026
September 25th-27th
We designed and created a life-sized pneumatic animatronic gorilla, that showcases the technology behind expressive, life size robotic characters. Designed to perform to music, the gorilla features 13 independently controlled movements powered by a pneumatic system, allowing for smooth and dynamic animation.
The project explores how animatronics can be used to create engaging storytelling and performance experiences. As a prototype, it demonstrates our motion technology capabilities and our continued development of pneumatic systems, motion control, and robotic entertainment technology.
Diamond Animatronics
We are an animatronic group dedicated to creating affordable, high-quality animatronic characters. We specialize in pneumatic animation systems designed to produce smooth, lifelike movement and realistic character performances. By combining engineering, fabrication, and creative design, our goal is to make professional-quality animatronics more accessible while delivering engaging and memorable experiences.
