Okay so this is for my class Bending Reclaimed Technology, the idea is to find old technology that has now been supersede and bring it back to life again, while at the same time transforming it. I found this old SHARP 2 colour ribbon receipt printer, my intentions are to create a population censor. It should judge how many people are in a room using a motion detector, stopping the printing with the more motion it gets. Using the printed text as a kind of drawn scale it will then display this data. The paper will be on a single reel so that it will print over itself, the darker the numbers get the less people are in the room.
