Autonomous Robot Construction: Quadrotors Teams

Posted on Monday, May 30th, 2011 at 4:25 am

Quentin Lindsey, Daniel Mellinger, and Vijay Kumar at the GRASP Lab, University of Pennsylvania have created teams of quadrotors that autonomously build cubic structures. Each robot is equipped with a grasper to pick up parts with magnetic guides on each end to insure secure joints.

The video below shows the quadrotors in action along with an explanation of how they work.

    Even the most comfortable and technologically advanced autonomous houses
    may require some differences in behavior. Some people adjust easily.
    Others describe the experience as inconvenient, irritating, isolating,
    or even as an unwanted full-time job. A well-designed building can
    reduce this issue, but usually at the expense of reduced autonomy.
