Pine cones are pretty smart for things with no brains, enough so that scientists have copied them to create a unique window ...
Think of a building shading system that intelligently adapts to changing weather conditions, and operates without an external ...
Using pine cones as a model, researchers at the universities of Stuttgart and Freiburg have developed a new, ...
Take the bottom part of the circle and roll it into a cone. Image caption, STEP 2: Unroll it and fold the shape in half vertically. Use a ruler to draw along the fold, then shade half of the shape ...
Scientists at the universities of Stuttgart and Freiburg have developed an amazing shading system for buildings that adjusts ...
"We are achieving a shading system that opens and closes autonomously in response ... and 4D-printing them into a bilayered structure inspired by the scales of the pine cone. Material systems produced ...
