About Germination آرٽ اسٿاليشن

جرمينيشن هڪ اهڙي عمیق آرٽ اسٿاليشن آهي جيڪا هڪ صنعتي روبوٽ باهون، روشني ۽ ٻوٽن کي گڏي پيش ڪري ٿي. روبوٽ باهو کي هڪ اهڙي ڪرمبند (choreography) ۾ ترتيب ڏنو ويو آهي، ڄڻ ته اهو هڪ نئون ٻوٽو آهي، جيڪو غير فعاليت جي عرصي کان پوءِ زمين مان اڀري رهيو آهي. ايل اي ڊي (LED) پٽيون پاڙن جي روپ ۾ ڪم ڪن ٿيون ۽ اهڙي روشني مهيا ڪن ٿيون، جيڪا کاڌ خوراڪ جو تاثر ڏئي ٿي. باهو جي مٿئين حصي تي هڪ روشن گولو لڳايو ويو آهي، جنهن کي ائين ڪنٽرول ڪيو ويو آهي ڄڻ ته اهو زندهه آهي. اسٽيج تي پروجيڪشن ميپنگ لاڳو ڪئي وئي آهي، جيڪو مصنوعي شين ۽ قدرتي عناصرن مان ٺهيل آهي. ٽن منٽن جو هي شو ان وقت ختم ٿئي ٿو، جڏهن بادلن مان سج جون شعاعون چمڪن ٿيون ۽ اهو نئون ٻوٽو ڦل ڦٽي پوي ٿو.

Unique Properties: Germination is an immersive installation which features an industrial robot arm and lighting and plants.
A robot arm is choreographed as a sprout which germinates from the ground after a period of dormancy.
At the beginning of the show, it absorbs nourishment from its LED roots and gradually starts to germinate. And after raining and thundering, it sways in the wind. Rays of sunlight shines from clouds and eventually it will bloom.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 3m x Depth 3m x Height 2m

Production Technology: Many processes were taken to realize this installation.
To send a command to control an industrial robot arm remotely, a communication system was developed. The robot arm’s maximum payload was 10kg but moment had to be taken care of.
And an attachment equipment was needed specifically for this robot arm. Wing Robotics, a startup company helped the project to solve these problems and eventually a show control system was developed that everyone can easily use.
Design Challenge: We took many processes to realize our installation.
To send a command to control an industrial robot arm remotely, we developed a communication system. Maximum payload was 10kg but we had to take care of moment.
And we designed attachment equipment specifically for this robot arm. We collaborated with a startup company to solve these problems and eventually developed a show control system that everyone can easily use.

Inspiration: This installation was created with a wish that it is going back to a normal and peaceful world soon and people germinate from constraint and eventually bloom again.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2021 in Tokyo, and was exhibited in Go Tech, Tokyo in March 2022.
Operation Flow: The show was run by a control system which has a straight forward UI. It can start a robot arm, sound, LED lighting simultaneously. Also it is possible to simulate how everything works on a preview window. The show is 3 minutes long but it can be operated by one person to click a button to start it.
