My goal is to make a motion mimicking device. A controller embedded with sensors will output to a device embedded with motors to drive its motion (mimicking the the motion of the controller). PRECEDENTS?
Although these projects are more directly related to my previous final project idea, they are still useful in the general space of what I'm trying to do. (click heading to see more about each project)
A cursory google search for "motion mimicking device" turns up this:
MATERIALS?
DEVICES: felt, chipboard, and spray adhesive OR all wool (felted by hand), plexi, thread, spool, hardware;
SENSORS: conductive thread, (velostat);
ELECTRONICS: copper board, components, battery;
MOTORS: two dc motors
WHAT PARTS AND SYSTEMS WILL BE MADE?
DEVICES: controller and mimicker
SENSORS: pressure, (bend) sensors
ELECTRONICS: boards to take input from sensors and output to motors
WHAT PROCESSES WILL BE USED?
DEVICES: laser cutter (potentially, but might not be needed) OR felting
ELECTRONICS: modela
PROGRAMMING: arduino IDE
TASKS TO BE COMPLETED?
DEVICES:
SENSORS:

QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED?
SCHEDULE?
after December 12th (studio review!)
