The Transforming Bleacher Covers: a structure that contorts when heated creating shade for the users while resting on the bleachers. The users can use the bleacher to its full extent and make for a good experience.

The inspiration for this project was to allow the users to enjoy the outdoors and relax while also being comfortable on the bleachers in the shade. The basic technology behind the cover is that it is a shape memory alloy structure that when heated bends and creates shade over the bleachers. The innovation behind this project is the use of a rotating base allows the users to have a continuous amount of shade. The bleacher covers do not depend on the user’s interaction with it, rather the climate and the amount of sun during the day. This project was made for a wider audience and will hopefully be a useful structure for many inspiring those to go outside and engage the users in healthy and physical lifestyles.
