Type of project:
ESPRIT III nº 6450

Objectives
Development of a robotized system
for building construction.
Automating main tasks such as assembly
of bricks, pillars and other elements in order
to build block walls and external enclosures.
GRC
GRC Panel Automatized Factory

Type of project:
PAUTA (Spanish Ministry of Industry)

Objectives
Development of a robotized glass fiber concrete
spaying cell.
Automatic robot path generation from panel
CAD files.
ROMA
Multi-funtional self-portable robot with mobility in complex environments.

Type of project:
CICYT (Spanish Science Foundation)

Objectives
Development of an autonomous self-supporting robot able to carry tools and its driver system in highly complex and large environments, build with steel frameworks. The main applications are: building and bridges inspection, nuts and screw torque verification, painting, etc.
ROCA
Outdoor Autonomous Mobile Robot.

Type of project:
CICYT (Spanish Science Foundation)

Objectives
Development of a mobile robot able to work in non-structured natural terrain, and manoeuvre with high degree of autonomy and minimum previous knowledge of work environment.
FUTUREHOME
Housing for Europe in the next century: affordable,
high quality homes for all

Type of project:
BRITE-EURAM

Objectives:Development of modular construction technology for residential buildings. The CAD design environment takes in account the assembly and manipulation on-site procedures. These operations are performed by robotized crane with several sensors and adequate control strategy.
