C.O.R.A.L

Designed by cheng XU

Cybernetic Observation Research of Aquatic Lifeforms (C.O.R.A.L) combines sculpture, sci-fi imagination, construction, and electronics to connect the human body and voice with Little Willey Pond using Arduino software and underwater circuitry.

Campers built an on-shore Control Station that controls a network of led-embedded resin molded coral sculptures living below the surface of Little Willey.

Using Arduino, campers set up five coral colonies attached to the coral reef, each colony has a specific sensor in the bunker which are activated by touch, wind, and light, each of which affect the light display in the coral itself
