Robot 250 videosI just shot some videos of a few of the robot 250 sites around town.

We have speakers, we share know-how, we do group shows together, we engage the great reaches of Mechanosphere…Mostly we are active in Pittsburgh but lonely migrants from here to those other cities are surely hankering for fellow local Rossum'sists. Here’s our website: A Call for Robotic ArtArtBots 2008 Call for Works ArtBots (http://artbots.org) is pleased to announce that the fifth international ArtBots exhibition for robotic art and art-making robots Inside-Out HouseOkay, this is an art installation I want someone to do with me. Ideally for the Walker, outdoors, in Minneapolis. So if you live in Minneapolis let me know. The structure is a cave (4 walled structure) with projectors projecting images on every inside and outside surface. The inside surfaces have videos projected on them of what you would see if the wall wasn't there, of the outside world. The outside surfaces have videos projected on them of what you would see if the wall wasn't there and you could see “through” the cube. Now you might think this is precisely the same as making a glass structure that is inherently see through (no projection). It’s not. Think about it carefully. Enjoy. Omni-Shoe-Bot #1Here’s the idea. We all love walking barefoot. Now you can, without ever touching the floor! This is a pair of omni-wheel-based robot platforms, with CMUcam3’s embedded, looking up. You wear special socks with fiducial marks on the bottom. Or better yet, you get a brightly colored tatoo on the sole of your foot (which hurts a tad). The CMUcam3’s do vision processing, control the motors, and it servoes to stay under your feet as you walk. You probably want different colored fiducials on each sole of each foot so you don't have them competing to go under the same foot. The bots have to get out of each others’ way and stay under foot in spite of obstacles on the ground. Anyone game to work on this with me? I'm serious folks. It’s a real interactive art piece for a museum somewhere. Sometime. |
