Description: Kinematics is a system for 4D printing that creates complex, foldable forms composed of articulated modules. The system provides a way to turn any three-dimensional shape into a flexible structure using 3D printing. Kinematics combines computational geometry techniques with rigid body physics and customization. Practically, Kinematics allows us to take large objects and compress them down for 3D printing through simulation. It also enables the production of intricately patterned wearables that conform flexibly to the body.

Title: Reverberating Across the Divide

Description: There is still a palpable disconnect between how one designs in the digital realm, and how one realizes a design in the physical realm. A number of factors contribute to this gap, including a virtual environment’s infinite scale, its autonomy from a tangible context, and its lack of physical materiality. Reverberating Across the Divide addresses such issues through a custom vision-based modeling software that uses a 3D scanning/sensing/printing workflow to merge digital processes in design with physical processes in fabrication.

Title: Constructable - Interactive Lasercutting

Category: #interactivefabrication

Author: Stefanie Mueller, Pedro Lopes, Patrick Baudisch - Hasso Plattner Institute,

Year: 2012

Url: http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/baudisch/projects/constructable.html

Description : Constructable is an interactive drafting table that produces precise physical output in every step. Users interact by drafting on the workpiece using a hand-held laser pointer. The system tracks the pointer and implements its effect by cutting the workpiece using a high-powered and fast laser cutter.

Title: The R18 ULTRA CHAIR

Category: #interactivefabrication #responsiveenvironments

Author: Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram

Year: 2012

Url: http://r18ultrachair.com/

Description: It consists of three main components: a carbon composite seat, a carbon-rubber composite back rest and aluminium alloy legs which can be compacted and transported in a lightweight flat-pack box.  Its genesis incorporates crowd-sourced data acquired through thousands of testing sessions using advanced industrial sensors whose data is processed by custom algorithms to adjust the final geometry and construction of the end product accordingly.

Description: The user becomes the producer as well as the consumer through a system that invites him/her to perform as a human statue, with a free personal souvenir as a reward: a small figure of him/herself printed three-dimensionally from a volumetric reconstruction of the person generated by the use of three structured light scanners (kinect).
