# Satellite-Tracking Pavilions The Orbit Pavilion Structure Uses Satellite Tracking Data From NASA By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-01-22 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pavilion-structure References: [archdaily](http://www.archdaily.com/780235/studiokcas-traveling-pavilion-for-nasa-lets-visitors-listen-to-the-sounds-of-space) & [studiokca](http://www.studiokca.com/) StudioKCA, an architectural and design practice based in the Brooklyn area of New York City, has developed an incredibly fascinating [pavilion structure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teepee-pavilion) that is designed to reflect the trajectory of satellites orbiting the Earth using innovative audio. The [Orbit Pavilion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orbit-speaker) is inspired by the simple experience of putting a shell to your ear to hear the sea. The structure makes use of actual satellite tracking data -- shared by none other than [NASA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-the-light) -- to figure out the orbital location of the sound representing a particular satellite. The Orbit Pavilion structure is a great example of how architecture can be about far more than just habitation and functionality, and can be used for educational purposes. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Science](https://www.trendhunter.com/science) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Satellite-tracking Audio:** Audio technology that uses satellite tracking data to create immersive experiences. - **Innovative Pavilions:** Architectural structures that go beyond functionality and provide unique experiences. - **Educational Architecture:** Architectural designs that serve educational purposes and engage the audience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Architecture:** Opportunities for architects to create immersive and educational structures using innovative technology. - **Audio Technology:** Opportunities to develop audio systems that use satellite tracking data to create unique, interactive experiences. - **Education:** Opportunities for educators to incorporate immersive architectural designs into educational experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Kinetic Interaction Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transmutation-observatory.md) - [Remote Viewing Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/telepresence-observation-pavilion.md) - [Glowing Sphere Art Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/netherlands-pavilion.md) - [Interactive Public Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radius-transformation-pavilion.md) - [Lunar-Based Rotating Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-pavilion.md) - [Interactive Architectural Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-landscape.md) - [Organic Spiral Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasona-natureverse-pavilion.md) - [Public Pavilion Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tess-pavilion.md) - [Climate-Sensitive Pavilion Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/querkraft.md)
