Material-based Interactive Robotics

This video demonstrates a vision for the potential of a designer to interact in real-time with a robotic arm equipped with a vision system by creating geometric reflections. A designer can establish spatial relationships that can be modified back and forth between the designer and robot.

This work is part of Daniel Smithwick's PhD research at MIT under Prof Larry Sass in the International Design Center. Numerous undergraduate research assistants helped with programming a pilot robotic program upon which this video is based: Dana Gretton, Steven Homberg, Jaguar Kristeller, Rachel Rotteveel, and Raghavasimhan Sankaranarayanan.
