Robotics for interior walls and ceilings.
This lab note keeps the project intentionally high-level. The work sat around a mobile robotic arm for plastering and painting workflows: how workers understand coverage, path progress, edges, and when to intervene. The images here come from ROSO's public construction-product page.
Robotics for interior walls and ceilings.
This lab note keeps the project intentionally high-level. The work sat around a mobile robotic arm for plastering and painting workflows: how workers understand coverage, path progress, edges, and when to intervene. The images here come from ROSO's public construction-product page.

The design challenge was to translate a craft task into a workflow an operator can understand: surface coverage, wall edges, ceiling transitions, path progress, and intervention points. The public page describes the robot as an autonomous construction system for indoor painting; this lab entry keeps the same high-level framing.

Real construction sites are not clean lab scenes. The system has to account for unfinished surfaces, cables, material staging, lighting changes, and other crews moving nearby. The representation work focused on making the robot's plan legible without exposing the private control logic behind it.

ROSO's public product materials emphasize environment scanning, robotic path planning, positioning reliability, and BIM-to-robot workflows. Those same themes shaped the non-confidential design story: how to make a robot's next action feel predictable to the worker supervising it.

The important interaction is not full autonomy as spectacle. It is a worker knowing what the robot is doing, what area is finished, what needs review, and when the task should pause. That is the part this public version can safely communicate.
