Dustyn Roberts
Dustyn Roberts is a mechanical engineer, teacher, and author. She started her career at Honeybee Robotics as a design engineer on a project for NASA’s MSL mission, scheduled for launch in 2011. After consulting with James Powderly and Michelle Kempner during their residency at Eyebeam Art + Technology Center in 2006, she founded Dustyn Robots and continues to engage in consulting work ranging from gait analysis to designing guided parachute systems. In 2007 she developed a course for NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) entitled Mechanisms and Things That Move that is in its fourth year (see class website at: www.itp.nyu.edu/mechanisms). Dustyn was awarded a residency and grant from Eyebeam Art + Technology Center in March 2010 to support development of a book based on this class: Making Things Move (see the companion website at: www.makingthingsmove.com). Dustyn holds a BS in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University with minors in Robotics and Business, and an MS in Biomechanics & Movement Science from the University of Delaware.
