Inspiration for Building Creative Robots

When I present the Geometry Robots lesson to my students, I start off by encouraging them to think creatively about the type of robot they want to create.  What will its character be like?  What is its personality?  And, most importantly, how will you convey that personality?  On that thread, we take some time to look at expressions in works of art and animation, including, but not limited to robots.  Here are just a few of the images I share with my students as I ask them to think about how they will use shapes to create facial expressions and personality in their projects.
