PROJECTS: Self-Ventilating
By using solar energy, a thermobimetal system can be smartly designed to block the sun. This strategy is especially useful when trying to prevent solar heat gain and glare to enter a building, while using no energy and needing no controls.
Making things spin, walk, roll, hop, schootch, slide and wobble is a fun office project that tests the broadening area of robotics. However, in this case these simplistic robots use the sun's energy to propel and need not computer controls or artificial intelligence to operate.
