We have seen the future of construction, and there’s plenty of 3d-printing drone swarms. Think of this construction method as a variation on how wasps make large nests, as multiple drones collaborate to build using a single blueprint. It starts with a single drone depositing a layer of building material, with another one verifying the accuracy of what has been printed thus far.
These drones work autonomously, but a human can supervise their work to ensure that there are no errors. Researchers demonstrated this technique by having drones use foam and special cement to build structures with varying height. Who knows? These drone swarms may even head to the Moon or Mars to build structures there. In related news, Hasbro is using 3d-printing in another way by putting your selfies on real action figures.

We’re talking about being able to build something of limitless size, theoretically speaking. I think this paper perfectly shows that it’s not science fiction anymore,” said Robert Stuart-Smith at the University of Pennsylvania.
