Introduction: Null

Quarc is a personal home-keeper. 2025 is looking nascent, and the world is in fantasy of the likes of Marvel’s JARVIS. However, the personability of it relies on great advents that can be progressed at the introduction of a physical presence. Quarc is that presence, in a physical form to accompany all the duties to keep a home e cient, sophisticated, economic, and seamlessly as you want it to be. Quarc controls your home. But, you control Quarc. Designed on Fusion 360 Rendered on Fusion 360 Edited on Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign About the designer: This section is especially important to help provide an analysis on why I chose the path I did, and to certify its manufacturability, and the philosophy behind how it will operate well. I was a former intern at Autodesk, reporting to Carl Bass, Autodesk's former CEO. During this time, I worked with Fusion to build special projects, one of which was a robotic octopus. It introduced me to the world of automation, robotics, and socially-interactive robots. I spent another internship in Munich, working with Bragi, on wireless headphones with IBM Watson computing - this helped me analyze high surface design with impressive intelligence such that I could better understand what the future entails. Most recently, I've worked on a Processing-programmed Raspberry-pi, that operates an automated home from a touch screen. Having lived in 7 countries, a student of mechanical engineering, and worked over 12 months in industrial design focused work, I have a great passion for the future of robotics in social environments. The most important is home management - who will handle all the IoT, the intelligence of a 2025 home? Though each of those IoT items are interesting, the nucleus of it all is what I chose to design - and what I reckon GE and Autodesk research on for their future in robotics. Presenting: Quarc:
