Robot Dinosaur
Shadow developed a working model of the Ornitholestes dinosaur as part of a series of internship projects. The dinosaur had three head movements, two arm movements, three tail movements and a flexible spine providing a wide range of neck movements. All movements were, of course, powered by Air Muscles.
The Dinosaur later had an interesting career in performance studies, and can be seen here at a workshop with the Performance Robotics Research Group.
Flight Simulator
Adrenalin Systems needed prototypes developing for their innovative domestic flight simulator. Shadow were commissioned to produce both proof-of-concept designs and initial system prototypes, as well as writing demonstration software and developing innovative actuation.
Autonomous Furniture
A top interior design company contacted Shadow with an unusual commission: to produce intelligent moving furniture for a London penthouse. The furniture had to be able to move along complex paths, whilst being completely safe for the user.
Stoke Newington School Energy Project - 2004
The Energy Project is a site specific installation that snakes up the 100ft boilerhouse chimney at Stoke Newington School. A bespoke computer programme reads the levels of video and audio content produced by students in Year 9 and this affects the behaviour of 45 light panels with over 9000 LEDS.
