Here’s a cute video about how UK-based Rusty Squid designs robots. Rusty Squid is a studio for experimental robotic engineering and design, working within the contemporary arts.

David McGoran, Creative Director says “We explore the design space before committing to sensors and autonomous behaviour. During the design process, we created our own bespoke tools to effectively communicate with engineers, artists and designers. One of the bespoke tools featured in How We Build a Robot is called the Story Machine; we use it for, what we call, ‘Relationship Design’.”
