Prereq: Undergrads and grads passionate about design and food
This course teaches the theory, design and fabrication of pneumatic shape-changing interfaces. For hands-on practice, students will design inflatable and edible objects. Two approaches will be used for the design of pneumatic shape-changing food: engineering approach and biological approach.
Engineering approach: Students will be introduced to an electronic pneumatic control toolkit used to create soft transformable objects. We will learn how to work with the toolkit (including an arduino-based programming board, a set of pneumatic circuits, and a series of pneumatic actuators), how to program the board to create interactions and shapes, and how to control the inflation of objects.
Biological approach:
Students will learn about the culturing and fermentation process of yeast. A bio-safety level 1 lab from chemical engineering department will be dedicated for this session. We will emphasize food science and engineering, and apply the knowledge in a hands-on session to control bread growth.
Design workshop:
For the design workshop, the topic is “inflated appetite”. We will use food material, especially flour, to create inflatable shapes. Students will be encouraged to think about inflatable shapes from different aspects: composite material structure, material anisotropy, elasticity and viscoelasticity, surface tensile strength and elongation, etc. and will develop unique creations drawing on what they've learned.

Enrollment: Limited: First come, first served (no advance sign-up)
Limited to 60 participants
The seminar will include pizza. This will be a presentation and hands-on learning opportunity. Participants will develop an understanding of how to construct their own handling and control systems for gasses and liquids. The basic function of valves for directional control, metering, on/off control and one way check valves will be discussed as well as a discussion of packed versus packless valve stem construction and their suitability for particular applications. Fundamentals of pipe versus tubing connections will be presented and will included discussions of compression seals, welded connections, face and vacuum seals fittings. There will be plenty of time for specific questions and opportunities for hands-on fitting use.
