Workshops: March 15–17, 2016 Conference: March 18–19, 2016 University of Sydney www.robarch2016.org chair@robarch2016.org
The adoption of digital fabrication in the creative industries continues to accelerate as the potential for innovation and creative expression using robotics is being harnessed. ROB|ARCH2016 will provide hands-on experience with the most recent robotic technologies as well as a platform for dissemination and an opportunity for researchers and industry to exchange expertise, explore methods, compare techniques and forge new connections.
ROB|ARCH is a bi-annual conference series on the use of robots and robotic fabrication in architecture, art and design. Initiated by the Association for Robots in Architecture it aims to link industry with cutting edge research institutions. In 2012 the conference was run by its founders in Vienna (Austria), it was then hosted by the University of Michigan (USA) in 2014. In 2016 the conference will travel to Australia where The Faculty of Architecture, Design and Planning at The University of Sydney is proud to be the host of the conference.
ROB|ARCH2016 seeks to bring together architects, artists, designers, fabricators, and industry leaders. The organisers of ROB|ARCH2016 invite authors to submit papers with original research relating to the use of robots in architecture, art, and design. The purpose of this year’s conference is to advance the discourse surrounding robotic fabrication and creative robotics in its theme “Trajectories” – towards the integration of human-robot interactions informed by sensor input and real-time feedback in diverse environmental conditions.

the other pluggins again, I doubt that problems arise and if I already have them Which are due to the autodesk pluggins that I can install on another computer or mount a virtual machine, but I doubt it, I simply had to install Grasshopper first and then the rest.)
Problem:
Good day, afternoon or night, please help I can not install the Grasshopper plugin 0.9.76.0 in Rhinoceros 5SR13, I do not know if it is because I uninstalled the version of 32 Bit of Rhinoceros and I only have installed the 64 Bit version, I have installed on Rhinoceros 64 Bit:
Autodesk Realtime Renderer 2014 x64 Autodesk Shape Modeling 2014 x64 Autodesk T-Splines 2015 x64 V-Ray 2.00.23938 for Rhinoceros 5 x64 V-Ray Express 2 for Rhinoceros 5
I would infinitely appreciate the resolution to this problem, for the moment I can not think of anything other than to uninstall everything and leave only installed the program Rhinoceros 5SR13 with Grasshopper 0.9.76.0 and nothing more.
I already tried to download another new file from Grasshopper 0.9.76.0, which ruled out that this installer is wrong, what I could do is look for another version of Rhinoceros but I have the newest one or one of the newest versions: Rhino_5.13.60913.21340_x86_x64_Multi. Exe
I understand that the Grasshoper installer is showing me a message where it says there is a Win32 exception where the system can not find the source file, what I do not know is if this exception has to do with the Windows C /: Folder: Windows, subfolder: System32 or I do not know if it refers to that as I do not have the 32 bit version of Rhinoceros maybe the installer gets confused and generates the installation error exception.
Another thing to which the exception is associated is the start process file: Start.nfo or start information.
There is also a programming argument for file upload errors of boolean operations (geometry operators) associated with the platform operating system, a process called child process.
Also appears another note that says the installed package of a plugin called inspector and I do not know what else I can not explain.
I do not know what to do, I just happen to uninstall and install everything and I do not think the Rhinoceros installer has any errors, I have Windows 10 edition of Red Stone 1 of 64 Bit.
Thanks and if anyone had this problem and solved it please tell me how to fix it or if someone knows about programming you can tell me why all those errors or exceptions are.
Greetings, have a nice day, afternoon or night wherever you step or stand or wherever you are sitting or lying down.…

nteraction in the design of an enclosed volume.
Revolutions have occurred through architectural history and vary widely in terms of design methods and fabrication techniques. Focusing on inspiring natural form‐finding techniques, AA Athens VS works towards producing a large‐scale interactive prototype that alters in real‐time the perception of interior space.
Technology and architecture are coupled for the third year in Athens with a novel agenda of transforming an enclosed area and creating internal contrasting city‐life characteristics that transcend the local conditions. In collaboration with the National Technical University of Athens, Cipher City: Revolutions explores participatory design and active engagement modeling and continues building novel prototypes upon horizontal planes.
The toolset includes mainly ‐among others‐ Rhino Grasshopper, Processing and Arduino platforms. With the completion of the Programme participants receive the AA Visiting School Certificate. In 2013, the design agenda of AA Athens will connect with the agenda of AA Greece VS in the city of Patras. Participation in both Programmes will allow for a more extensive learning experience through additional tools like Autodesk Maya, Autodesk 3D Studio Max and more.

nts for Ladybug too. They are based on PVWatts v1 online calculator, supporting crystalline silicon fixed tilt photovoltaics.
You can download them from here, or use the Update Ladbybug component instead. If you take the first option, after downloading check if .ghuser files are blocked (right click -> "Properties" and select "Unblock").
You can download the example files from here.
Video tutorials will follow in the coming period.
In the very essence these components help you answer the question: "How much energy can my roof, building facade, solar parking... generate if I would populate them with PV panels"?
They allow definition of different types of losses (snow, age, shading...) which may affect your PV system:
And can find its optimal tilt and orientation:
Or analyse its performance, energy value, consumption, emissions...
By Djordje Spasic and Jason Sensibaugh, with invaluable support of Dr. Frank Vignola, Dr. Jason M. Keith, Paul Gilman, Chris Mackey, Mostapha Sadeghipour Roudsari, Niraj Palsule, Joseph Cunningham and Christopher Weiss.
Thank you for reading, and hope you will enjoy using the components!
