"Cockroach Controlled Mobile Robot" is an experimental mechanism that uses a living Madagascan hissing cockroach atop a modified trackball to control a three-wheeled robot. If the cockroach moves left, the robot moves left. Infrared sensors also provide navigation feedback to the cockroach, striving to create a pseudo-intelligent system with the cockroach as the CPU.

My research is on robot design and looking at the ways in which the functions and applications of intellectual machines can be recognized. Thus the exterior design of such technologies must convey visually the information system within. The rapid evolution of technology necessitates an even more sophisticated approach to the visual design system in order for the project identity to become instantly recognizable. The power of design to integrate into our cognitive functions meaning is achieved by the suggestion of form. The sophistication of intelligence is achieved through the symbiosis of art and science and the role in which design plays to enhance the beauty of the other.
