TRANSFORM - Amazing Technology Invented By MIT

Ғылым және технология

TRANSFORM fuses technology and design to celebrate its transformation from a piece of still furniture to a dynamic machine driven by the stream of data and energy. Created by Professor Hiroshi Ishii and the Tangible Media Group from the MIT Media Lab, TRANSFORM aims to inspire viewers with unexpected transformations, as well as the aesthetics of the complex machine in motion.
The work is comprised of three dynamic shape displays that move more than one thousand pins up and down in realtime to transform the tabletop into a dynamic tangible display. The kinetic energy of the viewers, captured by a sensor, drives the wave motion represented by the dynamic pins.
The motion design is inspired by the dynamic interactions among wind, water and sand in nature, Escher’s representations of perpetual motion, and the attributes of sand castles built at the seashore. TRANSFORM tells the story of the conflict between nature and machine, and its reconciliation, through the ever-changing tabletop landscape.

    it's a great start, but for me to buy one of this things, several improvements would need to be made: 1. increase the piston density by 2-3 orders of magnitude 2. make the whole thing dead silent 3. NO MAINTENANCE REQUIRED. As is, it would need a lot of maintenance.

    +DrAvocadoChicken could be a problem, if you have programmed it to create a couch, when it hears the snap of someone's fingers, and a friend visits, who didn't know of that programming, and (s)he clicks their fingers, and up pops a couch, and flings them in the pot of boiling water nearby, ... or the new 999" TV, and smashes it, and hurts them!! Just because they were standing in the wrong spot!! You may say, the computer would know where they were standing, but, not everything is perfect, it may miscalculate! Or you may have forgotten to set the default uprising speed from 'very fast' to 'slow' !!

    Can we do this with pins? Like those "pin art" toys where you put your hand, or face, or whatever you like against the pins on the toy and the shape shows up on the other side in the pins? It would allow more precision, and more detail. I can imagine maybe having a virtual office meeting where you're showing off a 3D model of a concept car or something using those if you can't be there in person. This would put us more towards a realistic 3D experience.
