That's cool. You could also make one that is open at the start, but closes up gradually as the wind gets too strong. So even in a strong wind, you would always have a nice little breeze.
This is interesting, but I'm slightly confused. So the makeup of the facade changes depending on wind speed, not temperature? What if it's really hot but there's no wind blowing. Will it stay closed?
Might consider those properties under the "SMP" aspect? I'm reading now about "Smart Polymer Gels" that react via temperature, light, magnetic fields or solvents. This might be something they were thinking, but couldn't or didn't want to fit/jam into the video (which seems more concentrated on the behaviour of the auxetic material). Could google SMP in any case.
It's just heat. Wind has the potential of carrying the heat away, resulting in a cooling effect that resets the tiles. If there's no wind, the tiles would open and stay open until it gets colder.

It looks so futuristic
Its interesting how I think Ive seen these things before when doing art or origami
Bravo. Well done, indeed, innovations that do not require electricity are legendary and pioneering.
The wind's blowing from the inside in the last picture.

@@beesareLameWasps i am just about to learn SMP and SMA.. now they already come out with smart polymer gels? Amazing!!

Hi, such amazing work have you done! Can you please tell me which 3D print filament you used?
0:38 and title
hi! awesome work!! would you share the file?
Hi! Do the different patterns have different performances?
Brilliant Idea. I would love to work with you.
eerie
what is the name of this software @ 1:33
It's Rhino i guess.
hello, where did you get the smp from??
Whats exactly the polymer that you've used? Will PLA or PCL work?
Did you find out?
100% PCL.
SMP
