About

Simon Treml is a forward-thinking researcher at the intersection of digital fabrication, human–robot collaboration (HRC), and augmented reality (AR) in architecture and construction. His work centers on making advanced manufacturing processes more intuitive, scalable, and sustainable. Treml’s most cited paper, “Towards data-informed co-design in digital fabrication” (2023, 21 citations), introduces a framework that integrates real-time data into collaborative design workflows, enabling architects and machines to co-create more efficiently. This contribution has been recognized as a step toward bridging the gap between digital design and physical production. In his more recent work, “An implementation and evaluation of large-scale multi-user human–robot collaboration with head-mounted augmented reality” (2025, 3 citations), Treml tackles the challenge of scaling HRC from small, light-payload robots to the massive scales required in building construction. By leveraging head-mounted AR, he enables multiple human workers to safely and intuitively interact with large industrial robots, paving the way for more flexible and sustainable construction practices. Treml’s research is shaping the future of how humans and machines collaborate in the built environment, with growing impact in both academic and applied contexts.
