Started the first big project this week. After practicing with the Lego Mindstorm software we have now been tasked with creating a robot that can make art from its interpretation of communication given by humans. The robot has to be unpredictable with what it will create from the interactions that we give in a sense that we know how it is creating the art but not what it is. There has to be 3 creations from the robot to show that it is not on a set path.
Our group began researching on some other projects on what seemed to work well by being simple yet different. We came along ones that were from the years before on YouTube using a box and materials to create their art. It gave us an idea of what we wanted to make; something that could show both the internal and external state of the robot. We found this was an idea that not only produced the art but also gave a bit of background and meaning behind the project. It also gave different components to how the art was to be made for not just the robot, but for us as well.
