Skelebot was developed as an interactive and immersive animatronic skull with 3 primary design actions: skull movement, jaw movement, and candy circulation/dispensing. The Skelebot is a Halloween decoration designed to be a creepy and realistic-looking prop that adds to the overall ambiance of a spooky Halloween night. The combination of realistic movement, eerie lighting, and spooky sound effects can create a somewhat terrifying experience for the children who encounter it.
