Description:

Many artists and works represented online are indispensable to the history of digital media art; however, web sites are ephemeral and artworks posted on websites and its documentation frequently disappear. The insecurity of access to these materials presents serious obstacles to teaching courses on the history of digital media art. To facilitate future scholarship and classroom teaching, Cornell University Library is preserving and making accessible selected websites identified as important in understanding the history of digital media art. The items in this collection are intended for use in the teaching of Digital Media Art at Cornell University.

Title: The Ants: A Community of Microrobots

URL: http://www.ai.mit.edu/projects/ants/

Description: "The Ants are a community of cubic-inch microrobots at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab. There are two main goals for this project. The first is to push the limits of microrobotics by integrating many sensors and actuators into a small package. The second is to form a structured robotic community from the interactions of many simple individuals. The inspiration behind this idea comes from nature -- the ant colony." - from website, 2014 May 21

Title: Boadicea : a small, pneumatic walking robot

URL: http://www.ai.mit.edu/projects/boadicea/

Description: Boadicea's "mechanics are modeled after a cockroach, Blaberus Discoidalis. Like real insects, Boadicea's front, middle, and rear legs are all different, and the legs have large, overlapping workspaces. Each leg uses a pantograph mechanism to produce Cartesian foot motions." - from website, 2014 May 21

Title: Retired Robots : Hannibal and Attila

URL: http://www.ai.mit.edu/projects/hannibal/

Description: "Attila and Hannibal were built in the Mobot Lab in the early 1990s. They are the first robots constructed by our lab to serve as experimental platforms for autonomous planetary exploration. The robots are identical, differing only in color (Hannibal is red, Attila is gold). As can be seen in the pictures below, each is a small, six legged robot--the "progeny" of Genghis, our lab's first legged robot." - from website, 2014 May 21
