Gyrados Automaton

This project uses a box design base with circular and ovular cams to push up poles on the top piece giving the illusion that the object at the top end of them is moving up and down. The subject chosen are Gyrados and Magikarp, (specifically to each) who are Pokemon, (fictional monsters) as they resemble aquatic life and would be good to show in this type of movement. The Gyrados drew inspiration from a dolphin-designed automaton as it used a similar segmented design.
