Modular Systems

We are currently embarking upon the very complex process of creating a system of modular robotics which will eventually be used for structural development of the Lunar Colony.


Preliminary modular system :




This portion of the module would be manufactured in two pieces as flat panels. It would fold itself into the desired shape and then come together with an exact copy to create a skeletal form of an Octeherdon. In combination with panels folding to create cubes, a variety of forms can be created.













Currently, we are exploring the possibilities of panels being able to create and store themselves flat and then fold themselves into all three dimensional objects.



Further experimentation pending.
