Fully modular
Each part of the Builder is its own self-contained unit that can function independently. This retains functionality without chains.
This makes the future.
Each part of the Builder is its own self-contained unit that can function independently. This retains functionality without chains.
Be it big and heavy, or quick and nimble, the Builder will always find the best fit for the job. Mostly by itself.
Not only does the Builder create, it can also repair or even improve on existing designs based on machine learning.
By using augmented reality, you can use an artifical interface to interact with the system on the fly. Whenever, wherever.
The builder team is hard at work making this a reality, and we are always on the look for technological advances.
The Builder is currently partially 3D-printed to make upgrades and improvements working quickly.
The Builder is being made in Rotterdam, and all the 3D-printed parts have been prepared with Blender 3D.
The first prototype is shown at the Future Flux Festival 2018!

Hardware and assembly specialist
Software developer and 3D-camera technician
The builder is currently mostly built using 3D-printed parts, and using image recognition like Tensorflow. This is only the beginning.
