"Couleur Sur l'Object" Graffiti Robot Turns Vandalism All-Electronic
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 11:00 PM on March 7, 2008
Designer Stefan Rechsteiner has come up with the Couleur sur l'Objet concept as a modern way of applying "urban art" to walls in hard-to-reach places. Equipped with a can of spray paint, the little tyke would be like a badly-behaved roomba with a vacuum-suction mod to keep it in place. With its accompanying design software, you could presumably use to it create large-scale murals on walls that would previously have required some serious (and conspicuous) ladder-work. Town councils everywhere had better invest in new graffiti-cleaning tech of their own— we suspect this won't remain a concept for too long. [Yanko Design]

Might be a bit overly expensive to implement.
Still, combating them would be HILARIOUS. Robot wall wars!

Nice idea though. Although it seems like technology could be put to better use

WTF is 'haved'? Were you trying to say badly-behaved?

Concepts are nice.
Vacuum suction power to keep it on the wall?
BWahahahahaahhaa
I can tell now, this will never ever be realised.
Nice idea tho.
Better idea would be a foldable "printer", but then huge.

If you're 10 and put "first" on the first post fine; I can understand; you're 10. However I suspect you're NOT 10; which means a 15 yr old should know better.
QUIT!

Not as cool as this. Must be the whole "actually exists" thing.

Unfortunately for Designer Stefan Rechsteine, I've already developed a paint-resistant wall coating (concept only), rendering this concept obsolete. Nice try, though.
