Art students use 400 movable parts to make a wooden mechanical clock
Many people should still recall a very classic movie. The name of this movie is Hugos Secret, There is a very special automatic robot doll in this movie. This doll can write on its own.
Recently, Kango Suzuki, a student majoring in product design at Tohoku University of Arts in Japan, specifically displayed an automated mechanical component with similar functions in his graduation exhibition. The name of this component is Plock, and it also It can write, but what it writes is not words, but a series of numbers.
It is a time-keeping component composed of more than 400 wooden parts. It mainly relies on weights to continuously pull back and forth. Traction components operate.
Every one minute, the four magnetic coins on the component will re-draw the latest time on the magnetic drawing board. Its sophistication is hard to imagine. Start planning at the earliest At that time, Kango Suzuki also fell into the embarrassing situation of not knowing how to start.
Of course, this mechanical component, which only appears in movie effects, successfully brings the movie into In real life, it feels very difficult.
