I wanted to evoke a positive emotion in the audience, and decided to try to make my robot dance to inspire feelings of joy. However, while building my robot and playing with the physics, I struggled to get the robot hold a solid pose and it would either look like it was struggling or wiggling. This inspired me to pivot, and instead tell a story of struggle and success to try to evoke feelings of pride and joy. So  I made the robot try to flip a chair, at first barely budging it before finally flipping it and another chair behind it. After flipping the chairs, it celebrates with a wiggly dance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"arm\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SuX2KZMcnR8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-b3cd4b5f-313b-4539-8e22-5dfd97f2d1f8\" href=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/16-375\/f2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/arm.zip\">arm<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/16-375\/f2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/arm.zip\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-b3cd4b5f-313b-4539-8e22-5dfd97f2d1f8\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first sketched my design, I hadn&#8217;t put much thought behind the kind of performance I wanted to achieve.
