Entertainment Systems:

Sarcos' Entertainment Engineering is focused on developing robotic figures and virtual reality interfaces.

PERFORMANCE

Sarcos entertainment robots are constructed of proprietary subsystems that achieve high reliability, low cost, and very high performance in both speed and grace. They can be telecontrolled by a remote operator wearing a SenSuit or by a computer controlled playback of a preprogrammed show.


ENGINEERING DESIGN

Sarcos uses advanced CAD-based systems such as Pro/Engineer and Alpha-One for machine design. These systems provide direct interfaces to animation, analysis, and CAM/CNC software. Sarcos' state-of-the-art fabrication techniques are used to produce reliable entertainment systems in a wide variety of configurations and sizes.

AESTHETIC DESIGN

Sarcos' robots are not only the most technically advanced in the world, but are also reliable, economical, and aesthetically pleasing. Corporate staff includes leading designers, artists, and craftspeople who style the robots. Concept development and graphic renderings are supported by a complete sculpting facility where high-performance skins and other coverings are produced. Robots can be made to look like people, machines, animals, creatures, androids, or other forms.

OTHER SYSTEMS

In addition to robots, Sarcos manufactures a number of entertainment systems that include virtual reality displays and human-to-computer interfaces that allow realtime mobility and dexterity within synthetic environments. Many of these systems, which were originally developed for military simulation purposes, are also ideal for use in the entertainment field.
