Our robots built this in the city of Almere: curved walls, different types of bricks and bonds, indented text. Real world deployment, insane complexity, 100% of every brick done by our robots, with another 15 houses to come in the coming weeks.

I’ve long been obsessed with why our cities and buildings stopped being beautiful. A big part of the answer is economics: craft is expensive. Everyone thinks robots will make the world more affordable (they will). They’ll also make it beautiful again.

Launch products now and grow your business with X Ads. ’s NEO robot campaign shows how X can turn a product announcement into action. As put it, X was the perfect launch platform.

Can you talk about this seam? Why is it necessary and why is it a little sloppy? Not trying to dunk just actually curious about what's happening here.

Well done!!!!! and Congrats. It is said that introducing robotics into housing can reduce housing costs by 17%. I do not remember where i read that report, but do you have a rough estimate of saving?
Is this the construction of the entire building, starting from the foundation, or just the outer layer of bricks? Even the latter is impressive because it requires very hard manual labor.
Laying brick is one of the cheapest parts of a build. This is a waste of time. You need biped robots with the full list of worksite skills otherwise this is not scalable.
AMAZING!! What are the costs of running such a robot for this project? And are they already below typical labor for such jobs or yet to reach it?
