Drone design done for MIT's Imaginarium of Technology 04.
The Imaginarium of Technology is a collaboration forum for engineers and artists, to create future oriented designs together to increase to provide visualization for technical concepts integrated with solid scientific principles.
The task was the creation of a believable small drone to fulfill useful tasks for it's owner and become a constant companion (much as current cell phones are right now), based on future increased capacity of power cells and power consumption management (Forever alive technology). The concept was expanded later on to include possible interaction between the drones and other technological 'beings', based on cloud based AI and machine learning algorithms.
