Troubleshooting my graffiti-painting robot | Gerry Chen | TEDxAtlanta

In this charming short talk, technology optimist Gerry Chen shares lessons learned from designing a robot that paints graffiti art. Inventions featured designed in collaboration with: Tristan Al-Haddad, Sereym Baek, Milind Chandramohan, Juan-Diego Flórez, William Duncan, Harsh Muriki, Wanli (Michael) Qian and Derrick Jordan Richardson. Technologist Gerry Chen envisions a future where robots will be universally perceived as empowering vs threatening.

His fascination with robotics and autonomous vehicles began after watching a 2006 documentary about the DARPA Grand Challenge featuring self-driving cars. This passion persisted throughout his years pursuing an undergraduate degree at Duke University when he co-led the Duke Electric Vehicles team that broke the Guinness Book of World Records for vehicle fuel efficiency in 2018 and 2019.

Gerry is now a doctoral candidate at the Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Machines at Georgia Tech’s School of Interactive Computing where he studies artist-robot collaboration. He has also authored several publications in the fields of robot art, optimal control, and agricultural robotics. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
