Robots are interesting things aren’t they. They’ve been integrated so much into our lives that it’s becoming a little scary. SkyNet anyone? I joke, but still, intelligent sentient beings are becoming commonplace in certain industries. More recently in design, with the announcement of Joto, through a Crowdcube crowdfunding platform.
Joto has been designed to bridge the gap between technology and design. The creative robot is able to take an image that you have made on your PC, whether that’s just a text message or full blown piece of art, and draw it accurately onto paper using an ink pen.
The images are drawn onto a connected whiteboard. We’ve not been told if this is due to environmental wastage such as throwing bits of paper away, or because whiteboards are easier to use on the fly during business meetings, but it’s a wonderful idea all the same. And what more, the Joto robot can draw live on request.
