Towards a Robotic Architecture: From 3-D Printing to Life on Mars

Drawing from inspirations of Towards a Robotic Architecture (ORO Editions), this talk and presentation features Petr Novikov, Head of Research and Development at Asmbld, on the state-of-the-art technology that is being researched and developed to create buildings on the “Red Planet.”

Towards a Robotic Architecture presents a comprehensive overview of developments in the past decade and so in the cross-disciplines of architecture and robotics. This is the first collection that brings together 19 author teams that show the foremost experiments of applied robotics in architecture. In two accompanying essays the editors Mahesh Daas and Andrew John Wit, lay out the historical and cultural background that informs all this work. The book with its beautiful graphics is highly recommended for anyone who wants to get an insight into the near past and future of architecture.
