Computational BioForm

Taking inspiration from the natural motions found in nature; a flower following the sun, a leaf curling when dried, could we adapt everyday things by augmenting them with organic motions?

Using sensors and actuators that mimic natural movements, Computational BioForm could work as miniature exoskeletons to be placed on existing materials, bringing them to life through bio-inspired movements.

The exoskeletons would behave somewhat autonomously, but with care and human input, their motions would mimic their theoretical ‘health’, and could serve as an illustrative tool for environmental changes, and could also exist as a tool for children to see magnified effects organic changes.
