CYBER‐PHYSICAL FABRICATION PLATFORM FOR WOOD BUILDING SYSTEM UTILIZING HUMAN-MACHINE COLLABORATIONS INCLUDING IMMERSIVE ANALYTICS FOR AUGMENTED REALITY

This project is part of the Cluster of Excellence EXC 2120 "IntCDC", funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).

This research project aims to develop a semi-autonomous, off- and on-site, cyber-physical fabrication platform for a genuinely digital wood building system. It will address prevailing obstacles in timber construction such as low levels of automation (LoA) and transportation limitations by utilizing the concept of a modular, transportable, and extendable fabrication platform supported by Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) and custom Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs).
