We are seeking a team of students who want to bridge the divide between computer science and art. We are creating devices which can produce complex and layered oil paintings and seeking to link that output to existing digital painting software. Part of this project involves collaboration with the e-David robotic painting device at the University of Konstanz in Germany. Their team has developed a simulator which emulates the physical output of the e-David device.
Students will work with a simple CNC system at MIT to develop a "repertoire of marks," i.e. the basic building blocks of paintings and their parametric attributes. A secondary goal is to understand how the e-David hardware, software and algorithmic strategy work with the brush simulator. This will require close collaborative efforts with the researchers and code developers in Germany. Follow on steps will include a research residency in Konstanz and subsequently having the e-David visit MIT for further development.

Looking for students to help develop an innovative and unique idea.
As of now, several working prototyopes exist. They need to be refined and more working parts developed.
In short, this is a device that can be attached to objects that will change the objects behavior if used outside its normal parameters. This has large scale implications in many industries.
If you have expertise with accelerometers, gyroscopes, arduinos, simple physics, design, and programming, this is the IAP course for you.
