IntCDC researchers Lingyue Wu and TT-Prof. Anja Lauer presented their research at the International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC2026) 22 – 26 June 2026 in Singapore.
Their paper, "A Curved Mortise-Tenon Timber Joint for Robotic Non-sequential Assembly with Reinforcement Learning," explores leveraging RL to enable robots to handle contact-rich, non-sequential timber construction.
