Imago Research Group robotically-fabricated experimental pavilion.
Final stage of our roboic fabrication project: a full scale, 12.5 x 7.5 m, self-supporting, parametrically-designed and robotically-fabricated pavilion. Consisting of 132 individual elements made of hard styrofoam, it can be assembled, disassembled and reassembled without the use of glue or any additional connectors.
It was fabricated using a Fanuc M710iC/45M six-axis robotic arm, guided by the second iteration of our robot controlling app, which assisted with data conversion from a Grasshopper definition into instructions for the robot. Designed with this method of fabrication in mind, all the elements were defined using ruled surfaces with precise offsets to achieve fabrication tolerances of less then 0.5 mm allowing the 3D-puzzle-shaped to fit tightly together.
My role in the project spanned from design to coding most of the app on both PC and robot sides to prototyping to fabrication supervision.
Proper project documentation will follow as soon as it is completed.
