Artist Statement:
Feral Robotic Dogs is an open source robotics project designed to enable distributed and co-located teams of lay participants to ‘upgrade’ low-end commercially available toys with chemical sensing equipment, additional microprocessor hardware to enable environmental data collection and coordinated flock (or pack) behavior. The adapted robots “sniff out” environmental toxins.
