Articulating system
Abstract
The invention discloses an articulating system comprising one or more objects, one or more joining modules, a motion inducing module, a power source and a control module. Each object comprises one or more bobbling components, and the bobbling components are movably connected to the object by the joining module. The motion inducing module comprises at least one first component disposed proximal to the joining module. The first component is an electromagnet. The power source module is configured to supply power to the electromagnet. The control module is configured to control the power source module to supply power to the motion inducing module, to create a magnetic field at the electromagnet, which compresses the joining module. The control module is further configured to turn off the power supply that would release the joining module, thereby inducing movement to the bobbling component proximal to the joining module.
