Interactive ball-stabilisation digitoy with fun real-time physics. I set myself a challenge to conceptualise, build and film an interactive project in a day - this is where I got to.

Inspired by @yankodesign_official 's post showcasing the BaBot by @babot_project, a beautiful little arduino-driven auto-stabilisation bot. Such a lovely project that heavily informed the concept / formfactor here.

Controlling the plate using the iPhone's gyroscope plugged into Blender - thanks to @yonk.online for the fantastic new add-on. Also been looking to build a procedural engine-turned metallic shader for a long time now - I find the swirling pattern mesmerising. All rendered realtime in EEVEE.
