Abstract
On Site Robotics is a collaborative project which demonstrates the potentials of additive manufacturing technology and robotics in the production of sustainable low-cost buildings that can be fabricated built on site with 100% natural materials. Combining technological advances in robotics (cable robot and drones), natural materials and Computational Design, The project demonstrate the possibility to bring automation to the construction site, as well as allowing the production of high-performance buildings and their monitoring in real-time during the construction.
