Tri-Surf Video Demo
I have reassembled the Tri-Surf project and reprogrammed the Arduino. Click here to watch the high quality version of it on YouTube if you cannot see the embed player below.
What if we had something that could model a variety of surfaces in real-time? Tri-Surf is my attempt to do this by moving a collection of triangles to form an approximation of the surface modeled in Rhino. This previous...

can someone please tell me how to make my pdf small enough to post… its been telling me error with photo upload every time all semester
folding triangles
For this project i sought to create a 3d surface by simply folding 2d shapes, that when combined could create any predetermined surface, or be reorganized and add a level of control post cut. After finding the best shape that would be able to fold in on itself and create a sold form, the biggest problem I had was have enough material in the designated areas in order to hold the unit itself...

Tri-Surf w/ Arduino
My project involves using a collection of triangles to model a surface, and thus I have decided to name it Tri-Surf. This image shows the layout of the system. There are triangles connected with string to a controlling plate. The plates are either attached to the struts or to a turning wheel.
The plates that are attached to a wheel can be moved in real time via an Arduino controlling a...
