Colossal Super Mario Bros. Mural Created By a Robot

July 29, 2021 By ausretrogamer

Now this is so darn cool! A robot creates a giant Super Mario Bros. mural out of a record breaking 102,600 dominoes in a little over 24 hours! We bet that this has now piqued Skynet’s interest.

NASA engineer, Mark Rober released the below video and stated that he was happy to finally have it out after 5 years of development. Using precision-engineered toppling dominoes, the clever robot, dubbed “Dominator”, can setup 300 dominoes at a single time – imagine the amount of hands you would need to do the same!

Who said hard work doesn’t pay off?! Well done to Mark and team for creating an ingenious robot that can create impressive murals like this one.
