About
Lior Skoury is a leading researcher at the intersection of digital fabrication, human-robot collaboration (HRC), and augmented reality (AR) for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. Their work fundamentally reimagines construction sites as cyber-physical workspaces where human craft and robotic precision coexist. Skoury’s major contribution is the development of intuitive, scalable interfaces—most notably the **iHRC** system and the **Vizor** framework—that enable real-time, coordinated task sharing between human workers and industrial robots using head-mounted AR. This research directly addresses the challenge of scaling HRC from lightweight collaborative robots to the large-scale demands of building construction, as demonstrated in their 2025 evaluation of multi-user setups. With a growing body of work accumulating over 100 citations, Skoury has also pioneered data-informed co-design and digital twin architectures for collective robotic construction, ensuring that fabrication processes remain flexible, safe, and data-driven. Their 2023 paper on multi-actor fabrication for digital timber construction exemplifies a vision where humans and machines are equal, collaborative actors. Skoury’s work is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of automated, human-centered construction.
