Maker Faire Bay Area 2008
Bill's Artbots
| Location: Expo Red |
I will demonstrate several artbots, one of which is a windharp outfitted with homemade, electric-guitar pickups. This artbot will produce erie and harmonious sounds as a nearby fan is used to simulate a light wind. When people walk by, they change the wind patterns and the sounds. This windharp is a smaller version of one I have connected to an Internet Radio Station that can be heard at: http://windharp.webhop.net Other artbots shown will be: Farad, Jar-o-circuits, Picbugs, Fireflys, Solar lifeforms in jars.

I'm an electronics engineer who got involved in robot building soon after my children started entering Botball competitions at school. Robotics is an ideal way to blend science, programming, construction, and electronics in a challenging and rewarding way.
