Robots Assemble: Why Do Scientists Want to Create Self-Building Modular Robots?

Found in News and Content

…ways to build homes and infrastructure. For example, 3D-printed construction could be the future of housing construction, automating almost the entire process. The only problem is the printer itself needs to be larger than the structure it is printing. Self-building modular robots could scale the 3D printer autonomously as the building grows. The robots could even build the printer themselves…
