Easy to use technology

Use fabric to design this object as a wearable or soft thing

Make an object designed for an insect to use


Research & Brainstrom

These three cards led us to start thinking fictional outfits for insects. Naima contributed a lot of research about how insects function their organs. One project we found it extremely intensive is the cyborg beetle. This is an experiment of implanting wires into the beetle bodies for muscles control, after the implantation, the beetle can be controlled by buttons on a raspberry pi. The developer claimed this project is designed for public security since such a controllable beetle with a camera can be comparable to a mini-drone.

This project simulated us to think about how much danger we caused to insects and how can they be protected.
