Humble Prototypes — From ROVs to Houseboats

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: David Lang

Home: United States

The first prototypes are never pretty, but they're always necessary. It's important to view maker projects from a long-term perspective. They change and evolve through time. The OpenROV project evolved from a barely working prototype to a capable machine after dozens of iterations. Too often, this evolutionary process is hidden, even though the best learning takes place in the earliest stages. Come learn about our newest adventure (and prototype): a portable electric houseboat.

MACCHINE INTROVABILI… ancora per poco!

Faire: Rome

Maker: associazione culturale Informadarte

 

How to contain global temperature rise, or how to stop polluting? To such important questions we will answer with solutions which are simple, obvious and ironic, because simplicity and playfulness are children's prerogatives. Getting inspiration from Munari's illustrated books Machines and from Impossible Objects, we will invent new unseen machines. Hands will give a shape to thoughts, using drawings and collage. Art, reading and the workshop are tools, necessary to develop individual creativity, at service of the community. The goal il to educate through Art, and playing freely is our means to achieve it

Robomobile

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Russell Wilcox

Home: California, United States

Robomobile looks like a giant version of 1960s-era tin toy robots, with a person inside pedaling an adult trike. It has lights, and can go anywhere and talk to anyone. Despite being boxy and simple, it looks friendly and kids delight in it. Everyone asks 'are you a real robot?' to which I answer yes. I built it out of steel and aluminum, foamcore and plywood, a licence plate holder and trailer lights. It's a hit at Halloween parties.

Brushcob

Faire: Rome

Maker: Sapienza Università di Roma

 

Brushcob is a set of three scrub brushes for the skincare made with a biomaterial of our ideation based on corn cob, an abundant industrial waste. The abrasive nature of the cob is used to exfoliate the skin and, thanks to the glycerin and the potato starch in the recipe, the skin remains soft and smooth after the usage. Dipping the product in the water activates the softening capability of the material. The three brushes differ not only in shape and size, but also in the granulometries of the corncob particles, to be efficient in parts of the body with different characteristics.

Blipblox by Playtime Engineering

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Blipblox by Playtime Engineering

Home: California, United States

Our Maker Story Playtime Engineering is Troy and Kate Sheets. We design and manufacture advanced electronic music toys designed for all ages. Our flagship product is the Blipblox synthesizer. The making of the Blipblox is a great example of taking your “maker” ideas and turning them into a real product and a successful business. It all started when Troy started tinkering with ways to produce synthesized sound from low cost computer chips. Using a Microchip microcontroller development board, Troy wrote the code to make a single sawtooth sound wave. From that early code grew the software that would power the Blipblox. On the hardware side, Troy wired in knobs (the board already had buttons) and the controls started to take shape. The next step was to design a PCB board that included LEDs, MIDI, buttons, knobs, and an audio amplifier. 3D printing was used to experiment with various product designs. After several years of hard work, we are extremely happy with the final product. Today, the Blipblox remains one of the only synthesizers on the market fully certified to international child safety standards for ages 3 and up. We are grateful to the Maker Community for all of the inspiration along the way. Maker Faire Exhibit Description Join Playtime Engineering at the Blipblox Sound Lab! Our Sound Lab is fun for kids (and adults) of all ages. You’ll get hands-on experience making music using Blipblox synthesizers and the all new myTRACKS music creation station.
