We are very happy that Actuating Geometry in Design Workshop has finished successfully!! In order to demonstrate the concept and signal transformation from physical simulation in Grasshopper to geometry calculation in Processing to physical actuation via Arduino, TsungHsien, Shih Yuan and I had a pre-workshop…
In one discussion I had with Professor Scott Hudson in a class at CMU in 2007, I brought up my first idea of Adaptive Artifact, which is an Adaptive Mouse. The discussion inspired my strong interest…
Although it’s about two months since the end of the 2011 Taiwan Designers’ Week, Tangible Pixels project is still far from done. There are many research issues and implementation techniques that require more time to address and discovery after all. However, a video consisted of…
This project is discovering and inventing a potential new way of typing on a touch sensitive surface with no tactile feedbacks.
In this project, we design and make 438 flower robots for the 2010 Taipei International Flora Expo. Our goal is to make each individual equip identical minimum rules but achieve highly intelligent behaviors. Hence, we adopt the idea of “Self-Organization” to realize…
Adaptive Mouse (AM) consists of a smart material which is deformable and is capable of recognizing the deformation. The deformation provides perfect and comfortable ergonomic shape for users’ diverse hand gestures. The smart material itself could also dynamically activate…
