Vehicle piloted by a fish
|
Seith Weiner has created a vehicule piloted by a fish and propelled by 2 drive wheels, each driven by its own servomotor. The fish steers the vessel by its movements. A camera above the cockpit tracks the movements of the Terranaut (that's the name of the fish-pilot). Its location is then wirelessly transmitted to a remote processing station where the data is converted into motion commands and transmitted back to the motion controller of the vehicle.
See it at EXIT BIENNIAL 2 : Traffic, Exit Art, NYC, through Dec 23, 2005. Very very related: Augmented Fish Reality. |
