DIY ambient using robots

Printbot

Happy New Year! And what better way to start the new year than with one of my favourite things….robots! Someone has modded an iRobot create by adding a dot-matrix printer to blast talcum powder onto the pavement in the pattern of your choice … which can then be controlled wirelessly.

Not quite as practical or environmentally-friendly as the clean ads that SAS developed, and probably not likely to be adopted on a mass scale, but it uses freakin’ robots to make street art! Which qualifies it as pretty bloody cool in my book at any rate.
