Politecnico di Milano, Bovisa Campus – Room B2.2.6
Today architecture increasingly incorporates spatial constructs and systems that adapt to their surroundings and inhabitants. They rely on Wireless Sensor Actuator Networks and require data-driven Design-to-Robotic Production and Operation chains that are numerically controlled and (partially or completely) robotically operated. From (on- and off-site) robotic production to robotic building operation augmenting everyday life, the lecture presents achievements of the last decades and outlines potential future developments in Robotic Building.
