“…Implementation of a temporary enclosure for use throughout the construction period is highly recommended to block all sunlight and rain. Intelligent power tools with built-in interfaces and sensors could also provide workers with information regarding construction processes [Zoran et al 2013;Rivers et al 2012b]. Our handheld dispenser could be developed as an intelligent power tool, but sharing information among multiple tools would be a challenge for large-scale construction.…”

“…Our proposal for scaling up 3D printing mechanisms was inspired by recent works related to computer-assisted digital fabrication processes [Zoran et al 2013;Rivers et al 2012b],especially ShapeShift and Sculpting by Numbers, which make it easy to sculpt clay by projecting simple colors on a work [Skeels and Rehg 2007;Rivers et al 2012a]. This process is applicable to additive manufacturing, wherein workers hold a printing nozzle and are told where to print.…”

Figure 1: An overview of our method: (i) aggregation of printed chopsticks solidified with wood glue; (ii) a specially developed handheld printing device to consistently feed a chopstick-glue composite; (iii) print guidance system implemented by a projector-camera system; (iv) the constructed pavilion as a case study. Note that the method is still experimental, and the upper part of this pavilion was constructed separately as panels and assembled later. AbstractRecent digital fabrication tools have opened up accessibility to personalized rapid prototyping; however, such tools are limited to product-scale objects. The materials currently available for use in 3D printing are too fine for large-scale objects, and CNC gantry sizes limit the scope of printable objects. In this paper, we propose a new method for printing architecture-scale objects. Our proposal includes three developments: (i) a construction material consisting of chopsticks and glue, (ii) a handheld chopstick dispenser, and (iii) a printing guidance system that uses projection mapping. The proposed chopstickglue material is cost effective, environmentally sustainable, and can be printed more quickly than conventional materials. The developed handheld dispenser enables consistent feeding of the chopstickglue material composite. The printing guidance system -consisting of a depth camera and a projectorevaluates a given shape in real time and indicates where humans should deposit chopsticks by projecting a simple color code onto the form under construction. Given the mechanical specifications of the stickglue composite, an experimental pavilion was designed as a case study of the proposed method and built without scaffoldings and formworks. The case study also revealed several fundamental limitations, such as the projector does not work in daylight, which requires future investigations.

“…Smart hand tool systems such as FreeD [27], projector guided sculpting [22] and painting [10] systems presented the concept of assisting the user in a creative task by guiding the user based on a pre-defined model of the final desired creation. This concept is very relevant to the one presented here from the aspect of guiding the user to actions with favorable output.…”

Computing technology has advanced to a point where computers demonstrate better performance and precision in some analytical tasks than humans. As a result, we see a promising potential to significantly empower our decision-making process by providing relevant information just in time/space. In this paper, we present AfterMath, a user interface concept of predicting and visualizing consequences of a user's potential actions. We explore new possibilities through a prototypical system that harnesses physics simulation as a consequence-prediction method and uses augmented reality technology to visualize potential consequences. Finally, we suggest general guidelines for designing systems utilizing this concept.

“…Recent work has looked at making use of new materials for 3D printed input and output components (see for example [18]), new fabrication techniques using existing technology (such as the innovative use of laser cutting in [9]), as well as new classes of fabrication (such as the hybrid manual/automated techniques introduced in [20]). Work has also considered better systems and tools for supporting existing fabrication processes for prototyping of devices (see e.g., [14,15]).…”

This paper considers the design, construction, and example use of a new type of 3D printer which fabricates threedimensional objects from soft fibers (wool and wool blend yarn). This printer allows the substantial advantages of additive manufacturing techniques (including rapid turnaround prototyping of physical objects and support for high levels of customization and configuration) to be employed with a new class of material. This material is a form of loose felt formed when fibers from an incoming feed of yarn are entangled with the fibers in layers below it. The resulting objects recreate the geometric forms specified in the solid models which specify them, but are soft and flexible -somewhat reminiscent in character to hand knitted materials. This extends 3D printing from typically hard and precise forms into a new set of forms which embody a different aesthetic of soft and imprecise objects, and provides a new capability for researchers to explore the use of this class of materials in interactive devices.
