Navigator Show Programming
I programmed Pippin in TAIT Navigator. The show included 15 different axes, three different flown actors, and four axes connected to a steel grid. By articulating the grid with perfectly timed profile and axis move commands I created different looks. Including a wave, "pennyroll", and landing the upstage side of the grid on the ground. I also worked with lighting by sending the position data of three linesets over PosiStageNet. Kyle Strickland then used these positions for moving lights in the rig to track flying performers and the grid. You can find out more about this on the Pippin page in my portfolio!
Drone Show Research

I am programming and developing an indoor drone light show using the Bitcraze Crazyflie 2.1. I program the drones in python and use Unity to create movement simulations. I plan to add an LED ring, that goes on top, with a GrandMA2 to send light effects and cues in the future. I hope to have a final show demonstration at the end of 2022.
PosiStageNet Showcase

I conducted a PSN test by sending lineset axis position data from TAIT Navigator to the GrandMA2. Kyle Strickland and Tal Kochav worked on the MA to take the tracking data and assign it to a 3D tracking point. Then we designated two Solaframe's to point at the tracking points. This was then implemented into Pippin
