                                  was developed by a venture software developer
                                  based in Kobe
                                  System Watt. NeuroCube is a robotic system that allows
                                  dynamic and flexible configuration by users.
 Elements such as sensors, wheels or a motor
                                  are available as units that can be combined
                                  easily.
 Robots with a variety of functions can be
                                  built using NeuroCube.
 It can be used for creating a piece of media
                                  art. Here are some examples.

                                  sensor measures the distance and the plant grows while the sound also
                                  changes. Both the plant and music
 are based on fractal algorithm.

                                  composition with plural players is possible.
 In this case 8 units are used. (workshop at
