Human-robot workflow for timber structure assembly.
Internship project @Autodesk BUILD Space, Summer 2018.
In Collaboration with Mehmet Bermek and Sevki Topcu
This project was an attempt to develop a human-robot workflow for timber structure assembly. Structural elements were pre-fabricated using digital fabrication methods and were delivered on site with no specific order. The computer vision could detect each element and register the gripping point. Then the robotic arm will sort and hold each of the elements for a skilled worker to fix them to each other.
