#24 - Josefine Quack: Iterative Design and Brick-Laying Robots

from A Seat at the Table · host Annie Zountsa and Sasha Przybylski

In this episode we have the pleasure of being joined by Josefine Quack, an engineer at the Amsterdam-based Monumental, a company building brick-laying robots. It's exactly what it sounds like, and the robots are honestly futuristic to see in action. In this episode, Josefine shares her thoughts on building projects: pick the ones you don't feel ready for, and fun can be a valid reason!We also discuss some specific stories from Monumental, like how camera calibration works and how their engineers have had to work to adapt to the construction environment. And, Josefine shares what she's learned about iterative design. Sometimes, it's better to remove than to add. If you're interested in robotics, building technical projects, or breaking down problems, definitely check out this episode.
