Art + Engineering

@chemb0t

Hi I’m Chemb0t. I’m an artistically inclined engineer based in the California Bay Area. I currently work as a research engineer engaging in robotics, 3d modeling and printing, VR, computer vision and many other creative applications of technology to explore the future of making things. In my spare time, I dabble in artistic and technical side projects, touching all mediums, from paint and clay to servos and solenoids in an effort to find that elusive balance between Science and Art.

Totally overshot it here for a first Artfight attack, but the design was a perfect subject to test an end to end workflow involving VR sculpting and GPU raytraced caustics/refractions! XD;

The head is supposed to be full glass shroud with an internal projector that creates the eyes on the outer surface. I couldn't quite get it to physically do that, so I used a transparent map with emissive material to get a sharper image. The subtle lighting distortion is all physically based though. I like how the internal projectors make it look like she has freckles. ^^ Design by @aps1s

this fucking shit, you know

I spend so much time carefully picking and adjusting the colors in every single drawing I make that I’d probably lose my mind if I didn’t just repeatedly push this out of my memory and pretend it’s not a thing. Why am I reblogging a blank empty post that doesn’t say anything??? Weird

good news! you can’t make sure that everyone will see the correct colors on their own device, but you can make sure your monitor is as accurate as possible for printing and sharing by calibrating it!

there are a bunch of free monitor tests, but here’s an easy one you can use. the passmark and eizo tests are also pretty good, though passmark doesn’t work in your browser. be warned that some tests may cause eye strain.

you can either use the settings built into your monitor itself or use the display color calibration settings in your operating system to adjust the settings until everything looks correct, and then enjoy your accurate colors.

Photographers, too. Color calibrate your monitors if you intend to print or sell your work. There’s a ton of info out there for this.

NO YOU ARE ALL WRONG THIS IS INCREDIBLE

You're telling me the mail service is handing you this highly accessible Akira Toriyama-esque piece of gold and you're spitting in their faces?!?!

Not only that, they have more cargo space for mail, have a larger front front windshield so they'll be able to see better as they drive, and they're electric!

Plus, you know how old the previous trucks were? Half of em didn't have A/C.

I'm glad they're investing in the postal service, especially considering they've been trying to nerf it for years now and pushing us to use private delivery companies that are worse and for-profit.

In fact I want MORE cars that look like this! I hope every car in the future looks like this!
