In this project, the development of the automatic deployment system for tensegrity structure as a foundation module of a next generation of light weight structure is present. First, we designed a new tensegrity system which has the high specific strength and stiffness than other systems, and we denoted some results of the mass minimization. Second, we developed prototype models of an automatic deployment tensegrity structure which has telescopic system of compression members or adjustable system of string length, and then, we presented some experimental results of deployment system. These results denoted the validation for the effect of the present deployment system for tensegrity structure.
