The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will be to make possible small-scale, high-quality automated construction. This proposal investigates a method to automate the concrete forming process from design to construction, including site assessment, design, and material construction. This platform can provide fast on-site construction, reduce renovation timelines, and provide habitat affordability.This project advances translation of an automated concrete forming process, including concrete material formulations, robotic path planning/ machine vision for construction sites, and end-effector electromechanical designs. Other processes to be engineered include 3D mapping of existing site conditions, associated design processes, robotic path planning and material scheduling, and project execution.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

小企业创新研究 (SBIR) 第一阶段项目的更广泛影响将是使小规模、高质量的自动化施工成为可能。该提案研究了一种实现从设计到施工的混凝土成型过程自动化的方法，包括现场评估、设计和材料施工。 该平台可以提供快速的现场施工，缩短改造时间，并提供栖息地的负担能力。该项目推进了自动化混凝土成型过程的转化，包括混凝土材料配方、建筑工地的机器人路径规划/机器视觉以及末端执行器机电设计。其他待设计的流程包括现有场地条件的 3D 测绘、相关设计流程、机器人路径规划和材料调度以及项目执行。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
