He has been granted 18 U.S. patents, from structural concepts to the molded clips used in the construction of Shelter Systems' dome, yurt, tent and greenhouse structures.
Bob revolutionized the tent industry in 1976 by designing the first geodesic backpacking tent, The Oval Intention, using tensegrity design principles. Almost all of the backpacking tents using flexed poles that you see on the market are covered by Bob Gillis' patents. shelter@best.com
