Robo Fact #10

Did you know there are robots that can 3D print entire walls and structures! One example is the ICON Vulcan System, which is "a robot that lays down layers of concrete to print walls, creating a home from the ground up in as little as 48 hours of printing time (spread over a few days). No nails. No wood. Just a giant robot printer and a detailed CAD file."

These robots are not just used for experimentation. There are actual homes being built in places like disaster-struck regions and rural areas.
