MIT scientists invent blocks able to create giant lightweight structures

The video tutorial explains how lattice structures, similar to chain mail, can be assembled and reassembled into various forms. These structures are significantly stiffer and lighter than conventional materials, offering advantages in manufacturing and assembly. They can be produced in smaller facilities and assembled into larger constructs like wings and bridges. The lattice design allows for even pressure distribution across the frame, enhancing durability and performance.
