Robotic Coloration | Formal Definition

As a starting point, we are interested in the formal possibilities of color. The image above is a first attempt at using color data to generate three dimensional form through image sampling. We intend to mimic this method in processing, allowing for smoother geometric definitions by generating a more accurate point matrix, sampling each pixel, and generating a value that can be translated into a Z-axis translation. 

There is also a possibility to tweak the parameters in processing to generate similar surfaces with slight variations, overlaying them, and trimming them to introduce apertures with thinness and thickness as opposed to monolithic forms. 


We envision that the formal outcome will generate a space that can be broken down into a column field for purposes of fabrication and manipulation  After assembling each column, we intend to use its faces as medium for robotic color manipulation to determine what possibilities can emerge from surface coloration.
