Foreword by the Association for Robots in Architecture

It is incredible to conceive that only four years and two conferences have passed since the very first Rob|Arch in Vienna in 2012. At that time, the largest part of the audience were people with a general interest in new technologies, innovative workflows, and large-scale machines—but without any actual hands-on experience with robotic arms. At that time, it was also not clear if the use of industrial robots in the creative industry would be a short-lived hype, or something sustainable and permanent. With the number of robot installations growing nearly exponentially, robotic arms have now reached a critical mass within the creative industry. The Australian community especially showcases this extraord
