Role: Worked with Jun Sato's laboratory and Yusuke Obuchi's laboratory as a student assistant to develop a mixed reality scanning system for fabrication, supporting the UAE National Pavilion's commissioners at the request of Kenichi Teramoto and Wael Al Awar for the “Wetland” Pavilion. Primary responsability was the development of a real-time data acquistion script that fed 3D points collected by using Virtual Realitiy controllers into Grasshopper to then be structurally analyzed as each building unit of the pavillion was put in place by hand.
