About
Bu Li is a researcher at the forefront of human-computer interaction and digital fabrication, with a particular focus on transforming passive architectural surfaces into interactive, responsive environments. His most notable contribution is the development of **Duco**, a large-scale electronics fabrication robot introduced in 2021. This groundbreaking system addresses a fundamental limitation of modern architecture: the vast, inert surfaces—walls, facades, and glass windows—that dominate our surroundings. Duco empowers designers and engineers to embed interactivity directly into these structures, enabling them to sense, respond, and communicate. By automating the fabrication of large-scale interactive surfaces, Li’s work bridges the gap between digital interaction and physical space, opening new possibilities for smart buildings, adaptive workspaces, and immersive public installations. With 12 citations to date, Duco has already sparked interest in the emerging field of architectural-scale fabrication. Li’s research is not only technically innovative but also deeply practical, offering a scalable path toward a future where our built environment is no longer passive but dynamically engaged with its inhabitants.
