System assembles graspable 3D objects in seconds by stacking 3,000 9 mm blocks on a 24 x 16 pin-based shape display; each block embeds a spherical magnet that freely orients for omni-directional horizontal latching while a weaker backward magnet enables vertical release so overhangs survive. Prototype pipeline converts STL to block layout, pushes a whole layer in parallel, and yields quick assembly and manual disassembly. Works as proof of concept but is open-loop (pin-position and handling errors), has coarse resolution and limited stability, and requires manual push-down or future automation and consolidation (e.g., soluble glue).
