Day Two

Robots in Media To further understanding of robots and their designs and uses, I did some research into robots from films and video games. When researching into each of these various robots, I thought into some questions the creators of these robots would have had to answer when designing them. These questions were: Who built them? Why were they built? Where will it be used? What abilities it has? How can it be helpful?

Mindmap and Moodboard

Firstly, I used any ideas/words that came to my head when I thought of robots to create a mind map, this includes things like power, weapons, materials they could be made of etc. Then I went on to create some moodboards of robots in various films, games and other media to find inspiration for my own robot design.

As you can see I made two, one of which with entirely humanoid robots on and one with non humanoids. I also did some research into robotics that currently exist in modern times, the ethical problems these robots face, and how we are moving further forward with robotics and implementing more and more into modern day. One major problem with using robots is that they are widely used in factories on the construction line and are much quicker and more accurate than people, this in turn is making people lose their jobs etc.
