FREE SPACES OF MOVEMENT AUTOMATICA, MUNICH

KUKA heralds the start of a new era: SENSITIVE ROBOTICS. Intelligent robots with sensitive capabilities that work hand in hand with humans. The robot becomes a colleague, the proximity of man and machine grows. The resulting new possibilities and the resulting flexibility are translated into the architectural design and become a grand gesture: organic, free-flowing lines of motion of the world’s first sensitive robots create a momentum that spans the arc to 12 scenarios of real working worlds.

The KUKA booth 2014 captivates through its focus on a single product: the LBR iiwa. The first robot that does not require any protective spaces and thus heralds a new era, MRK (human-robot cooperation), which sets new standards as sensitive robotics. All other products from KUKA are only presented in digital form and thus fade into the background.

The freedom of movement of flexible, sensitive robotics becomes a built metaphor in architecture. The free form language draws unique spaces that captivate with their light and gentle impression. Starting from a center, sculptural bands on the floor and ceiling continue the free form language and frame the booth on its flanks.

In the center of the complex free form is a diatonic sound game. Robots move freely in this area, automatically avoiding the moving singing bowls that hang from the ceiling on a four-meter-high mobile. Lighting from below creates a constantly moving shadow play on the inside of the freeform, bringing it to life.
