Über Shelter Project

The video demonstrated the assembly process for the Uber Shelter prototype. We are an organization focused on designing emergency shelters to meet the needs of different climates terrains family sizes and cultures. The model shown in this video is a collapsible, 2 story, 190 square foot, 3 roomed shelter with 2 of the rooms fully insulated. The second floor is a sleeping loft which utilizes vertical space for increased living area. It is shipped flat in a 4x8x2 package that is unfolded and assembled on site. It is man-portable and assembled with a wrench. The key feature that separates our design from any shelter in the field is that the Über is raised off the ground. This feature is imperative for weather purposes. Telescoping legs allow the shelter to remain level on uneven terrain. The Über Shelter is in prototype phase and is being tested.
