PROJECTS: Self-Ventilating
By using solar energy, a thermobimetal system can be smartly designed to block the sun. This strategy is especially useful when trying to prevent solar heat gain and glare to enter a building, while using no energy and needing no controls.

Wheel
Summer 2017 and ongoing
Project Description
With heat, this project can erect itself from a flat-pack configuration. Concidentally similar to the shape of the new Mars Rover wheel, this wheel differs in the sense that it can assembly without human intervention. Other parts of a vehicle are currently being developed by DOSU for future presentations.
