Sonik Cube

Sonik Cube, installation visuelle et acoustique

Conception : Trafik
Musique et dispositif interactif : Yann Orlarey

Sonik Cube is a visual and acoustic installation. It is a logical space, immaterial includes on an illuminated cube on which it is possible to interact by the means of captors like microphones.

On the cube's facets the sound spatialization can be visualized thanks to the production of sound actions which can bent, marked, dent or distort the surface. The prints of the interactions made in real time shade off in the duration but can also resurface in order to state their history.

Himawari Plant Robot: Creature Expression Using Shape-Memory-Alloy Actuator Cluster

The goal of this project is to use shape-memory-alloy actuators to realize a wriggling creature. Normally, a shape-memory-alloy actuator generates a well-defined action (robot appendages grip something or walk). But in this project, precisely controlled actuators express wriggling and creature expression. It demonstrates that an assembly of actuators can be applied to shape display of 3D objects by increasing the number of actuators and the resolution.
