Algorithmic Awareness of A Robot

arduino

This is a simulation of an orchestrated consciousness where the subject is animated through computer programming. Based on the Caveman in the Box Trilogy and Information Materialization's abridge definition of consciousness, the prototype is alive but not living.

Lawsin Linkage

This is a double cantilever truss system that simulates the walking sequence of a biotronic species. It is required to walk fluidly like a real living animal, conquer any type of terrain obstacles, move in various directions with a wide range of actuated motion (R.O.A.M.), guided by nature's mathematical designs, and can be integrated with the arduino platform for micro-consciousness sketching.

Lawsin Linkage

Drivetrain

This is the drivetrain which is made up of a motor, axles, and gears that drives the Lawsin Linkage structure. The design was created to self-activate the locomotions of the experimental model using a stick shift.
