CeraCera Design Notes: Dream Butterfly

Dream Butterfly

In a hot summer afternoon last week, I dozed off while working on the instruction manual for the AquaShark ZZZ, zzz, ZZZ, zzz...... In a dreamy state, I saw a beautiful butterfly resting on a huge chrysanthemum. The butterfly was flapping her wings and I could feel the cool breeze in this hot afternoon. It was a blissful experience.

Butterfly is beautiful. Eureka!

We will love to have a butterfly Automata and this will be our next project. The challenge is on the mechanism because the wings are simply a thin sheet of paper and there is not room to house the mechanism. But we have figured out the concept and will probably put it into drawing shortly.
We love it and I think we will really enjoy designing this butterfly in the dream.

We call this model " DREAM BUTTERFLY ".

Do you love Butterfly?
Do you love Paper Automata?
Then you will love a Butterfly Automata.
