Professor Jan Willmann and Junior Professor Lars Abrahamczyk have successfully applied for one of nine fellowships from the Stifterverband and the Thuringian Ministry of Economics with their project "Robotic Tectonics – Robot-based teaching and learning environment for automated construction processes" (RoboTec). The goal is to develop and implement novel learning strategies, tools and scenarios to empower students for working with and through robotic systems. As such, prospective engineers, architects and designers acquire basic knowledge in the conception, design and implementation of robotic interaction and manipulation, and, through pursuing own experiments, they learn how robotic materialisation processes (e.g. joining components) can be "holistically" designed and new types of objects and structures can be created. In doing so, RoboTec outlines new pedagogic avenues in (constructively) interlinking data and material as well as design and realisation. The project will start on October 1st, 2024. More information will follow soon.
