Here is another student project from the three-day workshop we conducted together with Fulya Akipek and Mehmet Ali Altın. Briefly, the idea was to develop a system of cogwheels that spin together to animate an entire pattern. It was about to develop a kinetic system with a simple Arduino-based setup, probably with one servo and a motion sensor. The integration of the cogwheels system and the underlying pattern was interesting research.

Although it seemed very simple for a servo setup, unfortunately, we couldn’t manage to calibrate the Arduino and the servo exactly. Anyway, it was great fun. :) The pattern is based on a previous Grasshopper study explained here.
