Design - Week 5 Marta Elefterijadis

From this initial prototype, it was seen that the cord system we designed to allow our inflatable panels to be essentially pushed upwards, worked fairly well despite a bit of trouble with the stiffness of the material used.

It would be much wiser to devise a more flexible panel which can move with the cord while still at some point locking into place to form a more rigid shape that can then be inflated.
