For our team's second iFoundry project, we incorporated the Arduino chip set to add interactivity to our design. We developed a spider robot that can walk. However, it only works when it is being interacted with by another person. More specifically, when the light sensor on top of the robot loses light, it moves. This gives the effect of a tiny spider - scrambling for survival.
It's quite cute.
This is a toy for the child, nay, person with a vivid imagination.
It's a fitness toy! Hold one foot over the spider and try to keep up as if flees!
It's to keep your teenage girl from chasing boys. Just make her long for this spider that will never come to her.
It's for the cynic. Life isn't cuddly. Cuddle with this balsa wood and pokey wires instead.
It's eyes will peer into your soul and make you rethink the very way you live your life. =
Most of all, Spidey is your companion. He's there until the end (that is, until his battery dies (so around 40 minutes).
