MiniBricks - Robotic Brick Layering
MASDFAB ETH Zurich, 2020
Team: Evgenia Angelaki, Artemis Maneka
Tutors: Dr. Petrus Aejmelaeus-Lindström, Eliott Sounigo
Description:
Introduction to object oriented programming, computational design for robotic fabrication
Develop a robotic procedure (pick and place, gluing station for the mini bricks)
Develop a computational method to robotically aggregate bricks in order to build volumetric structures, using the UR 5 Robot.
500 mini wooden bricks
Concept:
Using Python in Grasshopper and mathematical models such as sinusoidal value genarations and gradual rotations, the distribution and orientation of the bricks is hardcoded in one single script.
