Medusai Robotic Sculpture Fabrication

Overview

Supported fabrication of Medusai, a large AI-driven robotic sculpture with sound, light, touch, and motion interaction.

What I Built

• Machined frame components
• Built mounting hardware
• Interpreted Fusion 360 / SolidWorks CAD references
• Performed MIG and flux-core steel welding
• Assisted mechanical assembly
• Helped resolve practical fit-up and fabrication issues

Technical Details

Medusai is a large robotic sculpture with interactive arms, sound, light, touch, and motion. Daniel's role focused on fabrication and assembly rather than AI/control design.

My Role

Daniel contributed to mechanical fabrication, welding, CAD interpretation, and practical build support.

Challenges and Debugging

• Translating CAD references into physical assembly
• Resolving fit-up issues during fabrication
• Working with steel welding and mechanical tolerances
• Supporting a large-scale electromechanical build

Results

• Helped streamline the build process
• Supported fabrication of the final robotic sculpture structure
• Gained experience with large physical prototyping and fabrication
