From physical to digital to physical. Then erase and start again.
At first sight, it makes you think about a lunar rover cruising the white surface of the moon, leaving dark trails behind itself while exploring virgin landscapes. In fact, it isn't but a small device, a “wall rover” travelling on a vertical surface. You write a note or take a picture then, through an application, just send it to the plotter, which immediately turns the digital data into reality. The aim of its creators was to produce a device able to transform any surface into a huge monitor, allowing people to create art works, shopping lists or memoranda on every surface of their house or workplace. Simplicity and efficiency were the core guidelines. Starting from the experience gained on previous models, they designed a plotter able to cover large surfaces using a minimal amount of components and offering the maximum variety of different graphical outputs.
