Augmented-stacking-publication-release

Development code for a dry-stone and -timber stacking technique in AR. Augmented Stacking is a CLI software developed and tested on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Augmented Stacking is an augmented system designed to guide inexperienced users through the stacking of complex and irregular geometries. This digital fabrication system was applied to the assembly of one layer of a half-timber dry-stone wall. Augmented Stacking is composed of two components: the stacking algorithm (which calculates the pose for each stone or irregular object fed to the system) and the augmented pipeline to display the information.

For information on how to run the code visit the README.md file of this release under the chapter To run the code.

Augmented Stacking was developed thanks to:

• IBOIS, the Laboratory for Timber Construction:
  Andrea Settimi (PhD researcher, conceptualization, software&hardware development, AR interface design)
  David Rebiffe (intern, software development)
  Julien Gamerro (Post-Doc, conceptualization, supervision)
  Yves Weinand (Lab head, supervision)

• EESD, the group Earthquake Engineering, and Structural Dynamics:
  Qianqing Wang (PhD researcher, stacking algorithm)
  Katrin Beyer (Lab head, supervision)

• Image HUB, the support group for imaging analysis:
  Edwardo Ando (scientist, hardware development, image analysis)

Augmented Stacking was funded by the Cluster ENAC initiative 2021-2022.
