Justin Lincoln's notational productions. Thoughts, text, images, sounds, and videos.
LumiBots by Mey Lean Kronemann are small, autonomous robots that can leave glowing traces. The robots are equipped with a UV LED at their tail which leaves a glowing trail on phosphorescent sheet. The traces not only create generative images, but have a deeper meaning for the lumiBots: With their light sensors, they can follow the other robots’ as well as their own trails, and amplify them, thus creating an ant-trail-like mechanism luring more and more robots on the same path.

science towards nature
Nothing better than autonomous robots
I want to be able to crowdsource creative ideas into this project, more rules, more color, different sized bots…

Bringing a robotic dimension to the phrase “flash mob”.
This experiment will inevitably lead to the evolution of nocturnal...nothing, lumiBots!
