In the near future, the University of Southern California professor's contour crafting machine will be put to the test to build a two-story housein less than 24 hours, using only concrete and gypsum—and without the help of a single human hand. Khoshenevis' groundbreaking robo-builder has caused some raised eyebrows and dropped jaws within the architectural community, as the machine provides a new model for construction that drastically cuts building timelines, material, manpower, and most importantly, waste and carbon emissions.2
