AI FOR ROBOTIC FABRICATION: Smarter Motion by Bridging Simulation and Reality in Robotic Clay 3D Printing

https://github.com/PaintDumpster/ai_for_robotic_fabrication.git In the field of robotic fabrication, precision is everything! Yet there’s often a significant gap between a simulated toolpath and the real-world movement of a robotic arm. Subtle discrepancies can lead to printing errors, structural issues, or failed prototypes. We explored how AI can be used to minimize this gap. This investigation sits at … Read more

RE_SHAPE

Digital  Transformation  of  Discarded  Logs  for  Structural  and  Design  Applications Re_Shape is a design and innovation project that addresses a major blind spot in the forestry industry: the waste of tree trunks that are curved, bifurcated, or otherwise irregular and therefore excluded from traditional processing systems. These logs are typically downgraded into low-value products like … Read more

Form follows Data

Introduction Facades are vital architectural elements, functioning as the interface between a building’s interior and exterior while reflecting broader design strategies. Vitruvius emphasized the concept of Venustas, the aesthetic appeal achieved through harmonious proportions and calculated symmetries, as central to the role of facades in conveying beauty and balance. In modern architecture, facades transcend their … Read more
