GrapheneCA has inked a pact with Apis Cor to develop a 3D printing system capable of printing graphene materials used for construction

The video shows a robot arm squeezing out layers of concrete over and over again. As the layers build up and the outline of a structure emerges, it becomes clear that the robot is building a house with mercurial speed.

The video, made by San Francisco-based Apis Cor outside Moscow, went viral. With reason, the robot put up a house for $10,000 in a day. The video was viewed 75 million times, a sign of the excitement created when a revolutionary technology, in this case 3D printing, meets construction. Printable buildings now represent the latest wave in construction and competition is heating up in the space. “3D printing will allow architects and builders to dream up extraordinary edifices that would be difficult and expensive to build using […]
