Using the Staubli TX-40 (also known as 'lil ro'), the experiment was to investigate the unique spherical work envelope of this particular robot, as well as begin to understand the limitations and advantages of existing control models for Staubli industrial robotics. Using the VAL3 programming language, we experimented with motion control sequences that explored the robot's worksphere, where Lil Ro performed knitting operations from within.

In this installation, the extreme precision of robotic movement allows a rigorous examination of the act of perceiving, space, sound, and movement within an immersive environment. Double Take maps a virtual cinematic world onto the physical space of the SCI-Arc robotics lab and casts the robots as light houses, revealing this superimposed reality. A projector mounted to a robot arm sweeps through the space illuminating this virtual world. By mapping and projecting alternate geometries and multiple visual cues onto the “real” physical space of the lab, Double Take expands spatial perception. A robots-eye-view live video feed provides a further doubling of the viewer’s perception within the robots' sphere of action.

The project is driven by phenomenological and material pursuits at many scales, with the intent to align material behavior with a dynamically responding contextual condition. I was primarily focused on the design/build of two custom rainscreen facade systems, RS1 and RS2. After much hesitation and over expensive bids from traditional contractors, Point B decided to take on the responsibilty of both designer and fabricator. My responsibilities included developing a parametric model of the subdivision procedure, while also generating cut sheets for fabrication and assembly details. Controlling the design through fabrication proved to be much more efficient and cost effective.

Esperant.0 uses Maya’s embedded features regarding kinematics and skeletons, and uses this as a technique to redefine how designers control the motion of industrial robot arms. Esperant.0 opens up an entirely new way to engage making through industrial robotics and operates on multiple scales; the singular robot and the multiple through collaborative robotics. Esperant.0, exports all necessary information from the Maya environment to structured data types specific to the val3 language. The resulting physical motion of the robot is identical to the animation displayed on the time slider in Maya. This element of timing becomes crucial when performing synchronous robotic tasks.

In the Vitruvian tradition, the architect as ‘maker’ does not simply assume the limitations of conventional tools as a constraint, but engages in the process of making innovative tools and machines to both conceive of and realize new architectural objectives. This thesis “Synchronous (Object)ives” aims to expand the discourse of digital design beyond the model of flat Euclidian space underlying three-dimensional digital modeling in the computer. By incorporating synchronous movement and forces this new approach extends the digital paradigm to include protocols that enable design in 4 dimensional real-time. A key aspect of this thesis is the development and implementation of a new design interface and toolset dubbed Esperant.0. This synchronous control model is fundamental to the integration of 3D modeling software (Maya) and hardware (six axis industrial robots), opening up new ways of designing and making through collaborative robotics. To demonstrate and test this new design paradigm the thesis research has explored a range of multi-robot fabrication scenarios, both simulations and real-time experiments in material form using combinations of two, three, four and up to five industrial robots. With the development of new digital and material design interfaces and control models, architecture is poised to enter a new era with potential to creatively engage new materials and the complexity inherent in the execution of contemporary building projects. The original research and design experimentation inherent in “Synchronous (Object)ives” does not aim to reconcile fissures between the digital and physical world, rather blur boundaries between the two in the fabrication of new modes of representation and design.
