Step 4Head Peice
Your borg doesn't necessarily need a head peice, but it sure helps. It's actually a lot easier to make then you would think!
Go to your hobby/craft store and buy a soft block of foam. I used a pair of scissors and carved the foam to shape the contour of my head. I then used a hot glue gun and attached a head band to the foam.
Then paint the entire peice black. If you had added any features or lights, make sure you mask them off first to avoid getting paint on them.
Next, you'll want to add lighting to your head peice. I designed a circuit board with a servo, laser, sharp IR distance sensor, and led's. You can attach maybe a flashlight, or some other led lights to yours.
My head peice adjusts the laser automatically when people come near me. It sure gets a lot of attention :)
