Anyone who knows me also knows I love robots. So when I saw this through Twitter, I just had to blog about it.
New York. Not a city that's known for being particularly friendly. Although, going by this, that's a little unfair. Tweenbots is a project by an art student who uses technology in her stuff. She created these lovely little robots who can only travel in a straight line.
And then gave them a complicated journey to take. Because they need to turn left and right, and get past obstacles, they need people to help them on their way.
So that's exactly what passers by did. They helped them turn corners, get up and down kerbs and all sorts. All of the robots reached their destination. None of them went missing.
How cool is that?
Now I just need to figure out what a ChildLine robot thingy would be about. Maybe there's an idea in this for one of our gaming briefs? What do you think?
