Grasshopper plugin for interactive simulation & form-finding

KANGAROO - AEC Software Tool | Nomic AI Glossary

Definition

Kangaroo can generate structures in static equilibrium in a simple and intuitive way using dynamic relaxation. Once we have this equilibrium structure we can rearrange the force vectors to form such a reciprocal diagram.

In Depth

Kangaroo is a physics simulation plugin for Grasshopper that enables interactive form-finding for structures and facades. AI enhances the form-finding by adding structural analysis feedback to the physics simulation.
