miranda has designed the robot with a notch that drops down to make a series of dashes dictated by preprogrammed messages. the notch is attached to a system of links that move up and down between the two sets of wheels.
based in northern spain, miranda who is fascinated by electronics, woodworking and digital fabrication, makes a project every week. he has an impressive collection of projects, including a hovercraft, 3D-printed robots, and even a tank. to see the rest of his portfolio on action see the designer’s youtube channel.
