About
Felix Amtsberg is a researcher working at the intersection of human–robot collaboration (HRC), augmented reality (AR), and digital fabrication, with a particular focus on the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. His work addresses one of the field's most pressing challenges: how to meaningfully integrate robotic automation with human expertise in construction workflows, especially in timber prefabrication. Amtsberg's most influential contributions include the development of iHRC and Vizor, AR-based software frameworks that enable intuitive, real-time coordination between human workers and industrial robots on fabrication tasks. These systems extend the capabilities of semi-automated environments by leveraging the complementary strengths of human dexterity and machine precision. His 2024 paper on challenges and potential for HRC in timber prefabrication has already garnered 33 citations, reflecting strong community interest, while his AR interface work has accumulated nearly 30 citations. Beyond HRC, Amtsberg has explored data-informed co-design methodologies for non-standard timber buildings and material feedback systems in robotic production—work rooted as far back as 2014. Across his career, his research consistently bridges computational design, robotic systems, and sustainable construction, making him a notable voice in the digital architecture and construction automation community.
