If you're a Star Wars fan in the Sudbury, Ont., area, these might be the droids you're looking for.

Since 2019, software engineer Patrick Ryan has embraced the art of building droids, the robot characters from Star Wars.

His creations have grown in complexity, and now he brings them to multiple conventions each year, letting fans interact with real-life versions of their favourite fictional characters.

But his signature piece is a BB-8 droid, a much more complex creation from 2015's The Force Awakens.
