Idea 1: Rigid Body on hobby servo to facilitate release<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

pros: safety pins that are fastened to fabric or string can create an unfolding\/unfurling effect (especially if fabric is pleated).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

challenges: small, servo would need to attach to wearable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I always forget how aggravating an experience working with the pneumatic devices\/inflatables is. I have found some ingredients for a successful inflatable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • Grease the tubing that goes inside the vinyl when inflating<\/li>
    • The smaller the inflatable, the more manageable<\/li>
    • Have pieces of tape ready to seal the inflatable<\/li>
    • Do not be afraid to use a little Sharpie<\/li>
    • Leave ample residual vinyl to touch up in case the soldered edges mess up<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      My next steps are to continue making small inflatables until there is enough to cover the upper body. I also found attaching the panels together by soldering the pieces is possible — but not always successful. It adds a cool melty visual element to the pieces, though. Weaving string through the holes the iron burns could be a potential way to attach them together as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
