Book Descriptions:

Robotic automation has become ubiquitous in the modern manufacturing landscape, spanning an overwhelming range of processes and applications-- from small scale force-controlled grinding operations for orthopedic joints to large scale composite manufacturing of aircraft fuselages. Smart factories, seamlessly linked via industrial networks and sensing, have revolutionized mass production, allowing for intelligent, adaptive manufacturing processes across a broad spectrum of industries. Against this background, an emerging group of researchers, designers, and fabricators have begun to apply robotic technology in the pursuit of architecture, art, and design, implementing them in a range of processes and scales. Coupled with computational design tools the technology is no longer relegated to the repetitive production of the assembly line, and is instead being employed for the mass-customization of non-standard components. This radical shift in protocol has been enabled by the development of new design to production workflows and the recognition of robotic manipulators as “multi-functional” fabrication platforms, capable of being reconfigured to suit the specific needs of a process.

The emerging discourse surrounding robotic fabrication seeks to question the existing norms of manufacturing and has far reaching implications for the future of how architects, artists, and designers engage with materialization processes. This book presents the proceedings of Rob|Arch2014, the second international conference on robotic fabrication in architecture, art, and design. It includes a Foreword by Sigrid Brell-Cokcan and Johannes Braumann, Association for Robots in Architecture. The work contained traverses a wide range of contemporary topics, from methodologies for incorporating dynamic material feedback into existing fabrication processes, to novel interfaces for robotic programming, to new processes for large-scale automated construction. The latent argument behind this research is that the term ‘file-to-factory’ must not be a reductive celebration of expediency but instead a perpetual challenge to increase the quality of feedback between design, matter, and making.

From reader reviews:

Roman Leonard:

Book is usually written, printed, or illustrated for everything. You can recognize everything you want by a publication. Book has a different type. As it is known to us that book is important factor to bring us around the world. Alongside that you can your reading skill was fluently. A book Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art and Design 2014 will make you to be smarter. You can feel more confidence if you can know about every thing. But some of you think in which open or reading the book make you bored. It is far from make you fun. Why they may be thought like that? Have you trying to find best book or ideal book with you?

Katherine Wilcoxon:

What do you regarding book? It is not important along? Or just adding material when you want something to explain what your own problem? How about your spare time? Or are you busy individual? If you don't have spare time to try and do others business, it is make one feel bored faster. And you have spare time? What did you do? Every person has many questions above. They should answer that question since just their can do this. It said that about book. Book is familiar in each person. Yes, it is appropriate. Because start from on pre-school until university need this particular Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art and Design 2014 to read.

Lynn Lambert:

People live in this new moment of lifestyle always attempt to and must have the spare time or they will get great deal of stress from both lifestyle and work. So , when we ask do people have spare time, we will say absolutely yes. People is human not a robot. Then we consult again, what kind of activity have you got when the spare time coming to a person of course your answer will probably unlimited right. Then do you try this one, reading publications. It can be your alternative within spending your spare time, the actual book you have read is usually Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art and Design 2014.

Nicholas Thiede:

Do you have something that you enjoy such as book? The reserve lovers usually prefer to decide on book like comic, limited story and the biggest one is novel. Now, why not seeking Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art and Design 2014 that give your satisfaction preference will be satisfied by simply reading this book. Reading behavior all over the world can be said as the opportunity for people to know world better then how they react towards the world. It can't be said constantly that reading practice only for the geeky man but for all of you who wants to become success person. So , for all you who want to start studying as your good habit, you may pick Robotic Fabrication in Architecture, Art and Design 2014 become your own starter.
