Asibo
Asibo is an expression device that shifts its behavior in accordance with the switching frequency and timing of the solenoid. Asibo looks like a pile driver and behaves like one. However it changes this behavior when the user/system switches its solenoid rapidly. ASIBO is designed as an actuator of a toy, robot, marionette and drum machine.
Asiboは一本足のロボットです。スイッチング周波数を変化させるだけで、進行方向を変えることができます。マリオネットやリズムマシンへの利用を見込んでいます。
