HAIRS
HAIRS: Hydrogel-Actuated Integrated Responsive Systems Joanna Aizenberg, Harvard University Responsive behavior, which is intrinsic to natural systems, is becoming a key requirement for advanced artificial materials and devices, presenting a substantial scientific and engineering challenge. We designed dynamic actuation systems by integrating high{aspect-ratio nanocolumns or nanofins, either free-standing or substrate-attached, with a hydrogel layer. The […]

Project 1: Immersive Environments
In VIST405, students created 3D immersive environments that participants can navigate physically and virtually. They used simple inputs (camera, wiimote, keyboard, etc.) and immersive displays (projector, HMD, monitor). Theme: Visible / Invisible Project type: Projection or HMD (option: stereoscopic display) Duration: 3.5 weeks Photos_Presentations/Demos                                 Photos courtesy of Glen Vigus Resized by Autumn, Krista, Mike […]
