The Media Computing Project (Winter Semester 2018/2019): FabTerrarium

Final Project Video

Class Description

This semester, our Media Computing Project class will let you design and build your very own Interactive FabTerrarium. With techniques from puppetry and building soft robots, you will design the animals of the terrarium. Let the animals be as interactive as you would like. Go crazy integrating mechanics, electronics, and programming (skills you have!) to let these animals come to life! We are looking forward to a great semester centered around your ideas.
