Arduion-based Adaptive Tension Structure

Interactive Installation
This project explores the intersection of social behavior and responsive architecture through a dynamic tension structure. Inspired by three social interaction modes—attachment, avoidant, and secure—the structure was designed using Kinect skeleton data to map and reflect human social patterns. The full-scale (1.6m x 1.5m x 1.5m) adaptive system integrates three Arduino-driven motors, enabling real-time shape adaptation in response to user interactions. Responsive elasticity was prototyped with Grasshopper Firefly, allowing the structure to track and react to human posture shifts, creating a seamless dialogue between movement and form.
