Where to Buy Animatronics

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY Feel free to post about your favorite fandom. The rest of the week your posts will be removed to make room for the diverse amount of animatronics out there in the world!

"Animatronics are the use of mechatronics to create machines which seem animate rather than robotic. Animatronic creations include animals (including dinosaurs), humanoids, plants, props, and even mythical creatures.

Animatronics are mainly used in movie making, but also in theme parks and other forms of entertainment. Its main advantage over CGI and stop motion is that the simulated creature has a physical presence moving in front of the camera in real time. The technology behind animatronics has become more advanced and sophisticated over the years, making the puppets even more realistic and lifelike."
