Medical Mech

3D Model

For when the terrain is too dense for a helicopter, send in the ground support. This medical mech is agile and can cross difficult terrain with the agility of it’s biological counterpart. Equipped with emergency first aid and a GPS tracker, this mech makes efficient work of finding who has been lost or those in need of help.

My entry for the Sony Robot Challenge. I think the hardest part of this challenge for me, was the creation of the concept. I wanted to model a robot that would have a purpose, and that could benefit society. I tried my hand at animating a walk cycle. It was harder than I thought it would be, and it’s a little rough. But I thought it was a good learning experience, as I had never rigged or animated a four legged creature.
