This short film documents several experimental design prototypes produced by the Robotic Ecologies Seminar during the Spring 2007 semester at the University of Virginia. Concepts from these prototypes will continue to be developed during 2007-2008. A working 1/2 scale prototype for an experimental energy-harvesting robotic glass house is currently being developed. The project is scheduled to be released and exhibited in January 2008. Note: to download a higher-res (42 MB .wmv format) movie file click here: DOWNLOAD.
