羅伯特?斯圖爾特-史密斯工作室一直在探索通過現(xiàn)場3D打印來進行分布式空中機器人施工。這項研究工作目前正在進行中，并利用了與物理材料相對應的概念性數(shù)字化模擬以及3D打印硬件原型進行探索。該項目對無人機在遙遠的極地作業(yè)并提供建筑避難所的能力進行了推測，這些避難所可以通過自主機器人施工的方式，用冰塊建造和維護。這項研究創(chuàng)造了3D打印冰制壓縮殼體結(jié)構(gòu)建造方法，通過獨特的洞穴結(jié)構(gòu)設(shè)計來優(yōu)化建筑的熱力性能。這種設(shè)計方法結(jié)合了無人機飛行的限制條件，以及冰在溫度變化情況下變化的材料屬性。這些殼體結(jié)構(gòu)的設(shè)計很注重無人機預定飛行過程所涌現(xiàn)出來的各種細節(jié)，無人機從當?shù)氐姆e雪中采集冰塊，然后在人類難以進行室外作業(yè)的氣候條件下，就地打印冰制結(jié)構(gòu)。這項研究成功地利用了建筑的時間特性進行了一項設(shè)計。由于設(shè)計算法在機器人施工過程中直接發(fā)揮了作用，設(shè)計和施工成為一個統(tǒng)一的創(chuàng)造性過程。

Studio Robert Stuart-Smith has been exploring distributed aerial robotic construction through onsite 3D Printing. This work is being undertaken through both conceptual digital simulations in parallel to physical material and 3D Printing hardware prototypes. This project speculates on the ability of UAVs to operate in remote polar regions to provide building shelters that may be built and maintained through autonomous robotic ice construction. The research developed 3D Printed ice compression shell structure construction methods that optimised building thermal performance through unique cavity construction designs. The design methodology incorporated the constraints of UAV flight and the phase-changing material properties of ice as it operates under fluctuating temperatures. The shell structures are designed with an attention to detail that emerges from the bespoke flight behaviours of the UAVs which harvest the ice from local snow deposits and print the ice structure in place in a climate that humans find difficult to operate in outdoors. The research successful embraces the temporal aspects of construction as a design opportunity. With design algorithms operating directly within robotic construction; design and construction operate as one creative process.
