Robotic Woodcraft
The Robotic Woodcraft interdisciplinary research team consists of architects, mathematicians, designers and master cabinetmakers. The University of Applied Arts Vienna, the Association for Robots in Architecture and Lucy.D, a Vienna-based design studio, are jointly exploring ways to customize production processes.
Recently, the team developed several pieces of furniture, the production of which builds upon the flexibility of today’s robots. Working together with master cabinetmakers, the research crew identified particular fabrication processes that are highly challenging to do by hand but benefit from a robot’s high precision and strength.
