The students put the newly acquired robotic arm to good use during our Spring 2011 Exhibit. NuVu students Mark and Noah transformed the Arm into a receptionist who hands out brochures to Exhibit guests. Mark and Noah spent a lot of time designing the Arms choreography, so the movement appears fluid and responsive to the guest's arrival. The Arm is equipped with a proximity sensor which triggers a sequence of coordinated movements when a guest approaches it: The robotic receptionist picks up a brochure and hands it to the guest, and as the guest takes the brochure, the Arm waves good-bye!
