The design environment contains terrain modelling tools to balance cut and fill volumes for material-neutral, on-site construction. Its parametric nature allows it to adapt the geometry to changing site conditions during fabrication. Our autonomous walking excavator is used to create these free-form shapes in natural granular material.

Autonomous walking excavator can build walls and dig
Sep 08, 2021 · A Swiss-German team has become the first to successfully convert a type of excavator that can "walk" on extendable struts and handle steep slopes so that it can operate entirely independent of a human operator. They used the adapted walking excavator to build a 4-metre-tall stone wall and grab trees for mock forestry work.

Programming Dynamic Models in Python: Coding Efficient
Oct 21, 2009 · The first is the scipy.stats toolkit and the second is a neat (and very easy to use) data structure called a heap. A heap is in very many ways what it sounds like: imagine a pile of trash in a landfill; the tires and rusting washing machines are on the bottom, while the pop cans and grocery store receipts are closer to the top.
