Deployable and Habitable Architectural Robot Customized to Individual Behavioral Habits

Architectural robotics enables physical spaces and their components to act, think, and grow with their inhabitants. However, this is still a relatively new field that requires further improvements in portability, customizability, and flexibility. This study integrates spatial embedding knowledge, small-space design principles based on human scales and behaviors, and robotic kinematics to propose a prototype robot capable of efficient batch storage, habitability, and autonomous mobility. Based on the spatial distribution of its user’s dynamic skeletal points, determined using a human–computer interaction design system, this prototype robot can automatically adjust parameters to generate a customized solution aligned with the user’s behavioral habits. This study highlights how considering the inhabitant’s personality can create new possibilities for architectural robots and offers insights for future works that expand architecture into intelligent machines.
