The delicate structure of this stool is deceiving.
The AI Stool (artificial intelligence) was designed by Assa Ashuach who used cutting edge 3D technology to design and build the limited edition seat. A special software was written to allow the designer to put in parameters, while the rest was done by computer. Ashuach inputs the concept and where the load capacity occurs.
Only 30 were made and are retailing for just under $20,000.
Produced by laser sintering, the chair consists of intelligent soft and hard structures. AI stool is an intelligent product that grows in free space with an artificial intelligence ‘DNA’ code. This code ensures that the object materializes perfectly from a virtual design into a 3d object with optimum strength and softness, while maintaining the desired design.
The challenge was to design a form with the minimum volume required for a seat and then instruct the AI software to calculate the required support. The AI stool top layer designed to be soft and cushiony. How can softness be simulated in the virtual environment? one of the great successes of this project was to generate and analyze virtual softness.
