Cacto (2016)
Steven M. Hernandez
At the end of each year, I design a small interactive robot.
This was the second, designed in 2016.
See other robots.
Technical Details:
- Materials: Clay, electrical components
- Features: White OLED eyes, capacitive touch cactus-spines.
- Programming: Arduino (C++)
Cacto's shell was modelled from a red brown clay clay to promote a feeling of an ancient artifact.
A mess of wires, batteries and other electronics are hidden inside of Cacto to provide interactivity.
