AirForce: Personal Fabrication of Large-Scale, Load-Bearing Animatronics Structures from a Single Tube

We present a fabrication system called AirForce that allows users to create large-scale, load-bearing animated structures from a single inflatable tube. AirForce builds on the personal fabrication of animated truss structures, based on which it replaces not only the static elements with tube, but also introduces tube-…

AirTied: Automatic Personal Fabrication of Truss Structures

We present AirTied, a device that fabricates truss structures in a fully automatic fashion. AirTied achieves this by un-rolling a 20cm-wide inflatable plastic tube and tying nodes into it. AirTied creates nodes by holding onto a segment of tube, stacking additional tube segments on top of it, tying them up, and releas…

Kerfmeter: Automatic Kerf Calibration for Laser Cutting

We present Kerfmeter, a hardware + software device that automatically determines how much material the laser cutter burns off, also known as kerf. Its knowledge about kerf allows Kerfmeter to make the joints of laser cut 3D models fit together with just the right tension, i.e., loose enough to allow for comfortable as…

Trusscillator: a System for Fabricating Human-Scale Human-Powered Oscillating Devices

Trusscillator is an end-to-end system that allows non-engineers to create human-scale human-powered devices that perform oscillatory movements, such as playground equipment, workout devices, and interactive kinetic installations. While recent research has been focusing on generating mechanisms that produce specific mo…

AutoAssembler: Automatic Reconstruction of Laser-Cut 3D Models

Recent research showed how to import laser cut 3D models encoded in the form of 2D cutting plans into a 3D editor (assembler^3), which allows users to perform parametric manipulations on such models. In contrast to assembler^3 , which requires users to perform this process manually, we present autoAssembler, which per…

Assembler^3: 3D Reconstruction of Laser-cut Models

We present assembler^3 a software tool that allows users to perform 3D parametric manipulations on 2D laser cutting plans. Assembler^3 achieves this by semi-automatically converting 2D laser cutting plans to 3D, where users modify their models using available 3D tools (kyub), before converting them back to 2D. In our…
