These final renderings represent how I envision a fully functional version of my design looking as well as the ideal material choices for each section of the design. The tentacle mechanisms consist of two distinct parts. An internal mechanical section composed of rigid discs that are fixed to a flexible central core. Like the interactive prototype that I made for the exhibition, these discs are activated via the use of cables running through all of the discs in the tentacle. The pulleys for these cables are located in the core of the design situated around a potential user's waist. These rigid mechanical parts are surrounded by a soft silicon sleeve turning the tentacles into a hybrid design of mechanical and soft robotics. The wearable section of the design consists of two parts as well. A soft silicon undersuit that conforms to the user’s body acts as the transition layer between the user and the rest of the design. On top of the undersuit is the rigid shell of the design. This part houses all the additional computers for controlling the tentacles as well as a link to the users implanted BCI for operating the tentacles, the batteries (located on the rear compartment) for powering the design, the cable pulleys, and the various other electronic components necessary for the design to function.
