Credits
BioTrayTable was a four person project in collaboration with an industry partner, supervised and organized by Prof. Antonia Kesel in the Biomimetic Development course. It is not available for public use and none of the content provided may be shared or used, regardless of intent. All models, designs and abstractions shown here were created by me. The project in its entirety could not have been completed without my group members Josephine Franke (project management, concepting, scientific writing), Elisa Heurich (concepting, scientific writing) and Jona Inanc (concepting, prototyping, scientific writing, protoype assembly).
