kuka | foam test.02 + .03
Tests 02 + 03 of the sprayed polyurethane foam structure. In these tests we were testing several parameters/variables between the digital model, kuka robotic language, and the physical manifestation. In the third test we have added a control to the actuator adding noticeable differences, and have further continued to test this variable, standoff distance and […]
Biologically Inspired Adaptive Network
‘Transport networks are ubiquitous in both social and biological systems. Robust network performance involves a complex trade-off involving cost, transport efficiency, and fault tolerance. Biological networks have been honed by many cycles of evolutionary selection pressure and are likely to yield reasonable solutions to such combinatorial optimization problems. Furthermore, they develop without centralized control and […]
Multiple Material Printers
‘Connex 3D Multiple Material Printers by Objet Geometries (ISRAEL) are recognized for their ability to simultaneously jet multiple materials with different properties into the same object. This extraordinary innovation is advancing the state of product development today by enabling the creation of prototypes and models that are far closer in form to the desired end […]
kuka | foam test 01
Video from initial spray foam test using the KUKA 7-axis robot. At this moment we were testing the foams ability to adhere to vertical surfaces, also checking for any deflection occurring within a two foot cantilever –the test sample showed no signs of deflection. A second testing this week will look at the foams ability […]
inoculate weep
‘Inoculate weep by Naomi Ocko and Benjamin Riley presents a imaginary forest in which is observed the inoculation of a virus. This agent provokes the death of the trees and thus progress from one to another creating some kind of path which composes a poetic landscape of destruction. We are here at the core of […]
sketch furniture
“The four FRONT members have developed a method to materialise free hand sketches. They make it possible by using a unique method where two advanced techniques are combined. Pen strokes made in the air are recorded with Motion Capture and become 3D digital files; these are then materialised through Rapid Prototyping into real pieces of […]
acadia 2010 | LIFE in:formation
We are pleased to inform you about ACADIA 2010 – Life in:formation: On responsive information and variation in architecture, Call for Papers and Projects. ACADIA 2010 will focus on the changing nature of information and its impact on architectural education, research, and practice. The conference will gather leading practitioners, theorists, and researchers who will examine […]
