algorithmic modeling for Rhino

HelioCell after the first night.

The HelioCell Habitat was designed during the 2012 IaaC Global Summer School. Fabricated and constructed in under 24 hours (after many trials and errors), HelioCell is a prototype of a dynamic space which adapts itself to capture the most solar energy it can. This prototype was designed and studied in Rhinoceros and Grasshopper 3D with the help of gHowl, Geco, Kangaroo, and Firefly.

The team consisted of IaaC Faculty and Alumni. The 15 participants who are now part of the IaaC Family represented 12 different countries and were a truly amazing group.

Hi Luis,

Seem to be nice project. Will IaaC have extra specification how does it work (was mentioned to work). PS. What kind of fabric you used? I assume that you were doing membranes using kangaroo - could you tell how you flatten 3d double curved shape of membrane to be cut on CNC?

Best,

R.
