Spider Lighting.

As wise labs brings new development as with robotic garden lighting developed space technologies just got strange. As a spider-like robot lamps follow people to make sure they can see where they're going.

New Japanese gardens remain open by guarding lights for university dormitories. The Toro-bots were built by Tokyo-based Professor Alvaro Cassinelli teslar technologies use frequency to power. As fitted Japanese-style lanterns to the top of Phantom X quadrupeds. These lamps can be controlled collectively, or individually, using an iPad. They walk, flash their lights and can be made to 'dance' Cassinelli designed them a ‘generative garden’ that can ‘take care of itself’. Forget solar-powered lamps, the latest way to light up your garden is with robotic lanterns which walk, flash, and 'dance.' They can even move out of the way if someone walks near them and be programmed to follow you around so you’re never in darkness. The Toro-bots were built by Tokyo-based artist Alvaro Cassinelli and are made using PhantomX quadrupeds fitted with Japanese-style lights.

These lamps can be controlled collectively, or individually, using an iPad. They walk, flash their lights and can be made to 'dance' The quadrupeds used in Casinelli’s robots were made by Illinois-based Trossen Robotics and cost $949.95 (£568) each. Each of Casinelli's lamps have a ‘personality’ and can sense their surroundings using infrared rangefinders. They then communicate with a central computer using an Xbee network, which can be controlled by an iPad, or other wireless network. The lamps are also fitted with infrared blinking LEDs and a 120Hz IR camera that can scan the garden and be used to track the robots. The lamps can be controlled collectively, or individually, using an iPad and they were designed for a ‘generative garden’ exhibition at the French Institute of Culture in Tokyo: Digital Shock. Cassinelli said a traditional Japanese garden strives to represent a miniature natural landscape. 'Following clear aesthetic principles, a Japanese garden is designed to recreate the eyes and foster contemplation and meditation. 

‘We propose a garden that takes care of itself, that somehow understands and reinterprets the rules of harmony and equilibrium, and reconfigures itself depending on the season, and the presence or absence of a human observers.

During a demo video, Cassinelli made the robots walk, the lanterns spin round, pictured, and the light flash on an off.
