BIOMIMETIC KINETIC FAÇADE/ROOF SYSTEM
Adaptive Biomimetic - Kinetic Façade & Roof System This project categorizes kinetic and foldable architectures and their elements, and explores the better understand the means and approaches taken to implement responsive systems, culminating in the design of a dynamic biomimetic façade and roof system that was developed from improvements to existing systems.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
In order to propose a two- or three-story row house as the foundation for the kinetic roof and facade systems, our team will investigate a building's capacity to move using the Kinetic Roof & Facade idea. This is because there is a problem with gaining natural daylight in the Philippines due to the row houses' small exposed surface area.
The architecture of the past ten years has evolved into transformable, dynamic, interactive things that may be used to accomplish a variety of objectives, including environmental considerations, human considerations, social engagement, and sense of place. According to Micheal Fox, "The primary goal of intelligent kinetic systems should be to act as a moderator responding to changes between human needs and environmental conditions." This will aid in accomplishing many objectives in the direction of a highly efficient building because the building will be more flexible to adapt its envelop for the external weather, which is primarily considered in a sun glare and a direct heat gain.

OBSERVATIONS
The movement procedure of the panels is the biggest problem we run into when developing the prototype because we don't have the right material available at the time that fits the panel to allow for a smooth movement. We noticed improvements in the way the panels moved after acquiring the proper supplies, including little washers and bolts that were the proper size. After the adjustment is made, it proceeds efficiently and seamlessly.
RESULT & DISCUSSION
Once all the panels needed to fit each opening in the main frame had been created. We started analyzing how the panels would move simultaneously. By checking the panel movement on of one the main frame's openings. We discovered a method for synchronizing the movement of the panels. After a few tests, we were able to successfully make the panel's system run smoothly and effectively by installing the connectors and actuators. additionally, the prototype's ability to retract and expand the panels was improved mechanically.
FINAL PRODUCT
The proposed system is a dynamic kinetic system that acts as a movable façade. The idea is that such a system may be programmed to respond to changes in light conditions and that panels can be reoriented to maximize solar heat gain in the summer and control it in the rainy season. Four sun visors fold up like wings and are controlled by a mechanism similar to that of a folding fan, but with a few key differences. Based on the user needs and space heating and cooling requirements, the system will provide numerous shade options. The system can also include a speech sensor to accommodate sudden changes in weather, giving users the opportunity to manage the kinetic facade/roof manually.
