ABSTRACT

ITECH_officialLogo_edited_edited_edited_

Imagine a structure capable of autonomously reinforcing itself, adapting seamlessly to any environment, from the gravity of Earth to the challenges of Mars. This project introduces an innovative two-agent system designed to build and reinforce self-sustaining structures in real-time. The first agent constructs the primary structure layer by layer, while continuous structural analysis is performed by Karamba, which calculates weak points and sends the data back in real-time. The second agent receives this information and dynamically reinforces the weak areas by adding substructures. This dynamic feedback loop ensures the structure evolves and strengthens as it is built, creating a resilient and optimized form. By integrating real-time structural simulations into the construction process, this system bridges the gap between virtual design and physical reality, culminating in a 3D-printed structure tailored to its environment.
