Robot Aided Creation and Construction

2021 RAC-Coon Workshop

The project introduces the fundamentals of robotics and the workflow from design to manufacturing. Designers operated the robot to build their robotic brickwork projects. In this way, designers could understand the advantages, potential, and limitations of industrial robots, exploring the opportunity to adopt robots in their future projects.

Bricklaying Robot
​Construction

Robotic brickwork combines a well-established building material with new digital design processes and robotic fabrication techniques. While departing from a traditional and labor-intensive manufacturing process it allows the non-standard assembly to become reality.

Grasping End-Effector

The pneumatic gripper is the earliest set of end-effectors at RAC-Coon. They are mainly used as training end-effectors for the robotic brick assembly workshops.

Bricklaying Design

This practice allows designers to create different shapes of wooden-brick columns modeling in the grasshopper, and then use kuka|prc to output the cloud points data of the path into the control panel.

Through the application of industrial robots in architecture, digital data, and physical materials could interact more closely. Conventional architectural knowledge and construction techniques could therefore continue evolving in the digital era.
