FIND IT. DRAW IT. MAKE IT. PAINT IT.
1. Find a your-head-sized box
2. Doodle (or google) a robot head
3. Create your own with robotic found objects (buttons, wires, switches and bleepers)
4. Pop eye-holes for visibility
5. Paint it or spray paint it (we recommend at least 5 days ahead)
6. WEAR IT!
No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes.
Watch the making-of video to learn about how the video was made and the various technologies that were used to capture and render 3D data.

As part of HSBC’s partnership with the 2008 Wimbledon Championships, JWT commissioned leading British artists Ackroyd & Harvey to produce a unique artwork using the medium of grass.
As grass is at the heart of the Wimbledon experience, this piece captures the unique essence of the most famous lawn Tennis tournament in the world.
The piece that Ackroyd & Harvey have produced is a fascinating combination of art and science, of past and present. By projecting a black and white negative image onto a patch of grass as it grows (in a dark room) they use natural photosensitive properties of the grass to reproduce photographs – thus using grass as a living photographic medium.
From a distance they look like any other monochrome photograph; up close they look like perfectly ordinary grass. Typical exposure time is just over a week, with the image projected for 12 hours a day.
For this work, they photographed three people at Wimbledon prior to the tournament, and displayed the resulting grass versions of the photos on three large panels in Merton Park, where the tennis fans have been camping and then queuing for tickets this year.
Next to the piece you can read about the three people featured who represent the essence of Wimbledon: Tara Moore, competing in the qualifying tournament; Eddie Seaward, head groundsman at Wimbledon for the last 15 years; and Lizzie May, a coach for the Wimbledon Junior Tennis Initiative.
