Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) is a tabletop role-playing game where players create characters and embark on adventures guided by a Dungeon Master. Through storytelling, strategy, and dice rolls, players explore worlds, battle foes, and solve challenges in an open-ended, cooperative experience. The game is played using polyhedral dices, character sheets, and often miniatures on gridded … Read more
Github: https://github.com/Adronegenius/Software-III-AI-Optimized-Earth-Injection-Deposits The process begins with human fabrication of woven modules using flexible rods or sticks. Due to tension, compression, and human variability, the woven pattern often deforms. Our system integrates computer vision to scan these deformations and a robotic arm to inject earth between structural members at optimized locations. This bridges physical craft and … Read more
Introduction In the face of the growing demand for sustainable construction, the integration of renewable materials with advanced fabrication techniques is essential for creating adaptable and efficient structures. Our team developed Terraweave, a project that combines willow and earth to create hybrid building components. By leveraging the natural properties of willow for flexibility and earth … Read more
