AirPolygon: Transparent, Film-based and Flexible 3D Display with Air-control
Yuki Akachi, Junichi Yamaoka · 2023
This demo proposes AirPolygon, a soft, bendable, and transparent pneumatic control film. AirPolygon distinguishes itself with its ease of fabrication, high transparency for direct LCD attachment, and lightweight, deflatable design for portability. We designed the system to prevent air leakage while capitalizing on each layer’s material properties. Demonstrated applications include a 3D haptic LCD monitor film, a lightweight game controller, a tactile video conferencing system, a tactile pulse meter, and a transparent switch for glass surfaces, illustrating AirPolygon’s broad utility.
