The main focus of the development I have worked with in the RobotLab has been additive manufacturing. The first, a FDM 3d printing tool to combine readily available 3d printer parts with a robot arm. The project allowed for the exploration of non typical toolpath generation and prototyping of test modules. I also used these tools to teach in the master level course Material & Detail. We focused on digital fabrication and scripting resulting in the precursor design of the Solar decathlon project.
In conjunction with Associate Professor Malgorzata Zboinska in a current research project, I developed and built a compressed air based FDM printer. Working with non-standard viscous material is always a challenge and requires an iterative approach to succeed.
