Morphius: A thrillingly terrific robot computer case

Posted By: Jayprashanth Mohanram | Dec 15 2009

Robot junkies will love this one. Maciel C. Barreto has created a computer case called the Morphius. The Morphius decidedly looks like a robot, and mighty good while at it. Looks like a lot of work? It sure is. First, Marciel painstakingly created a dummy with clay. Then, he repeated the mock up with silicone during which all the sculpting was done. Finally, the Morphius was created using glass wool. The Morphius stands on a stand shaped like spider legs. The stand also holds the processor which is a Realpower 520M. To cool this high performance processor, all of three cooling fans are required. All this sits snug in the stand that holds the robot too. We are thrilled, not just because the Morphius looks terrific, but also due to the sheer magnitude of effort that has gone into it.
