perhaps these can be good resources to start learning a bit about human-robot interaction:

Organic Fan
check out this fan made by Ofir Zack from bezalel.
too bad i don’t have a video – but it moves in a very organic manner, like a very big leaf…
PrintDreams – wow

its an amazing handle printer and camera,
it looks like its a project from Interaction Design course…

Drawing fractals
This weekend I met Natalie Andrew who is doing a post-doc at Harvard around Biology and Art, she told me that one of her (still in the middle) projects is a processing program in which you draw and the software creates fractals from it. Naturally I asked if I could try it!
I just got the link and couldn’t run it on first try, but maybe it’s some Java update thing, try:

(the imge is from another project, but just to have one in the post 
Update – I managed to run it (on Safari for some reason). Quite nice visually but not really clear in terms of the underlying process. Try it.
The real thing – A ROBO-PRINTER.
Robot printer - this one uses a different print head, it looks like they used a lots of hardware (and probably software)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukxT9QqYgG0&feature=related - this print-bot is simpler.
Musical alarm – short description
Car alarms (especially in Saturday morning) can be quit annoying. No one really pays attention when the alarm is playing – not the thief’s, and not the owner of the car.
When you think of it all car alarm just sound the same…
We want to give people the possibility to choose their own bit/song as an alarm –
first of all they could recognize their alarm playing even few blocks away,
and second the neighbors has suffered enough…
Our first try was to connect an old radio to a shock sensor…

96 dpi Serial Inkjet Printer Development Kit
HP has a Development Kit for the Inkjet. the Doc describes how to work with it.
they actually mount it to a ROBOT !!!

WARM-E first steps
By attaching adjustable shutters on top of the heater, and with a little help from some servo motors, we want to create an interactive blow-heater that responds its environment.
first prototype
1 servo + 1 light sensor
4 servo + 1 light sensor

We guesse the real challenge we are facing in this project is how to create the movement of the shutters fill natural and organic, and to create an intuitive behavior with this device…
