@[email protected] nice difference with Strandbeest!

Carpentopod: A walking table project

Link📌 Summary: 本文介紹了Giliam de Carpentier的「Carpentopod」專案,這是一個無線行走木質咖啡桌的創作歷程。作者以軟體生成的方式設計出最佳的腿部連接機構,並運用CNC技術製作桌子所需的部件。桌子由十二隻腿支撐,能夠平穩地行走,並搭載電子元件與馬達。最終,作者將此連接機構公開分享,鼓勵其他人按照自己的想法創建類似作品。

🎯 Key Points:
- 2008年開始的行走機構設計,利用軟體進行數千次的演化以優化腿部結構。
- 使用CNC切割技術製作桌子,選用強韌的層壓竹材以增強結構穩定性。
- 製作中考慮了腿部平衡和減少滑移的因素,構建了具有兩個馬達控制的雙段行走系統。
- 桌子的設計具有美學與功能性,並且在行走過程中不會顯著晃動。
- 作者決定將Carpentopod的連接機構設計開放給公眾,鼓勵自製。

Carpentopod: A walking table project

Back in 2008, I wrote some software for fun to generate various optimized walking mechanisms. And when I also picked up some electronics and wood working skills in more recent years, I was able to turn one of these mechanisms into an actual wireless walking wooden coffee table: the Carpentopod. This post briefly covers this project from start to end.
