The first sentence claims that China is facing a continual
demand for housing. I am not sure what about Singapore, but China has millions
of empty residential. In underdeveloped regions where housing is needed,
high-rise may not be the best solution. Housing issue in China is very
complicated.
By looking at the various tools the robots is capable of
controlling and the various building forms the robots are able to modeling, I
start to realize why they decide to employ robot to model. High-rises are
consists of repetitive units, and the robots are not simply stacking them
together, the tools attached are small fabrication machines.
I remember when our group was doing the pinhead assignment,
at that frustrating moment, I start to compare the robot to a stapler. No feed
nails needed, no script needed, pin in and deform the pin simutainesly, and
very accurate. Now I see a robot as the best craftsman with all the tools he
needs. By reading this article I start to realize the potential of robots, and
I am very interested in designing tools for robots now.
