ALF- The Acrylic Life Form, is a robotic construction kit that
provides an easy-to-use introduction to programming and mechanical design. ALF is an entirely laser-cut robotic head with features that can
easily be changed. Through simple programming software currently under development, users can program
ALFs to talk, sing, and even communicate with each other.
However, one of the primary goals of the ALF platform is its close connection with our LOGO
interface to the laser-cutter. The new design tools that we are working on will enable anyone to design
new features for ALF, thereby being able to give it a personal touch, helping to provide a less
intimidating environment for those less comfortable with the technology that actually brings ALF to life.
ALF is a product of the Grassroots Invention group, specifically Bakhtiar Mikhak, Chris Lyon and Andrew Sempere.
