About

Alexandre Dubor is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotics, digital fabrication, and sustainable construction. His primary contributions lie in developing large-scale additive manufacturing systems, particularly through the innovative use of cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs). His seminal 2017 work, "Large-scale 3D printing with cable-driven parallel robots," has garnered 146 citations, establishing a foundational framework for on-site, automated construction. Dubor’s research extends this core concept by addressing critical challenges, including the simultaneous reinforcement of concrete during 3D printing (26 citations) and the integration of sensors for real-time robotic toolpath revision. His work on "On-Site Robotics for Sustainable Construction" (20 citations) highlights a commitment to environmentally responsible building practices. Notably, his 2023 comprehensive review of mechatronic and robotic technologies in Latin America (54 citations) demonstrates a global perspective on advanced automation. Dubor also explores the nuanced interplay between material heterogeneity and robotic fabrication, as seen in his work on negotiated materialization with wood. Through these achievements, Dubor is shaping a future where construction is more adaptive, efficient, and sustainable.
