Kite-powered design-to-robotic-production for affordable building on demand

Bier, H.H. (author), Schmehl, R. (author), Mostafavi, Sina (author), Anton, A.M. (author), Bodea, I.S.B. (author)

Building technologies employed today in 2nd and 3rd world countries are imported, expensive, outdated and unsustainable. Highly developed countries, on the other hand, rapidly advance in developing affordable, numerically controlled and robotically supported material- and energy-efficient methods for building on demand. The research team...
