1.1.KUMIHIMO BRAIDING SYSTEM -Yarn Shifting Based (variable amount of feeders – even number) OUTCOME – single yarn(or geometrical variation if some object is inserted) 1.2. BRAIDING MACHINES SYSTEM –> Rotative (variable amount of feeders –> even number) OUTCOME –> closed revolved surface 1.3 KNITTERS SYSTEM –> CIRCULAR OR LINEAR (singular feeder) OUTCOME –> open & closed surfaces KNITTERS OUTCOME & EXISTING SOFTWARE (based on bidimensional patterns) You can find the link to the code on Dream Weaver DC motor controls You can find the video of the machine in action on dreamweaver_Brian,Joao,Melat You can find the link for the servo controls on Dream Weaver Servo controls The pdf of this presentation can be found at DREAMWEAVER_Melat.Brian.Joao
