28 Erik Moncrieff Developments in close range photogrammetry and machine vision are now on the verge of providing the necessary automated real-time geometry aquisition systems to enable practical adaptive design systems.These systems look likely to prove very effective in all fields of complex geometric object design.The design of multi-cellular pneumatic structures is clearly of direct applicability.
