維護自然資源和降低人類活動帶來的負面衝擊，為當代建築設計的主流價值。建築如何主動對應氣候變遷、自給自足、依據外界環境變化而調適的建築系統已成為當代建築發展的核心課題。在這趨勢之下，如何結合生態概念與智慧型人機互動系統於建築環境的應用，成為最新的研究課題。智慧建築可以視為”生態機器”(eco-machine)的一種。而”生態機器”不只是建築與可調構造上的整合，還涉及到智慧建築的能源管理，強調擴增建築物的主動反應機制，並利用感知運算科技來管理是當代結合永續與智慧的重要發展課題，並利用既有自然資源(包含熱、風、光、氣、水)，以達成節能之外其產能的效應，進而從”被動回饋”轉變成”主動回饋”之生態系統。

在永續互動研究發展背景之下，本論文包含以下核心研究問題:
[1.] ”生態機器”(eco-machine)其為微型生態系統的「孵化器」，如何達到能源的供需平衡與環境的自給自足?
[2.] 如何評估”生態機器”(eco-machine)的效益 與 綠色能源多目標使用性
[3.] 探討嵌入式主動回饋系統與建築內外表層、空間與設備的整合性，並研究不同空間性質對於場域的回饋力。
[4.] 如何擴增產綠色能源的效率與效益 ，並利用當地氣候條件使其達到效益最大化?

本研究透過下列兩個面向，展開對永續互動設計的探討：
[1.]應用層面: ”生態機器人”(eco-machine)在開放系統之下，可被替換、填充的空間單元元件，可置入到都市型態或鄉村型態的基地涵構中，以再生綠能介入既有的生態循環鏈中，企圖對場域帶來正面回饋。
[2.]效應層面:”以宏觀的角度探討(eco-machine)如何透過本身系統的可調適性，誘導自然因子進而發展成一個自給自足的微型生態圈，進行能源的再利用與淨化機制。
[3.]控制層面: 本設計受到的相關領域生態學、社會學、機構學的啟發，影響了感知運算系統的應用方式，感應器能感知周遭環境變化並調整改變空間狀態，已達到擴增空間單元的主動反應機制，藉以提出可調適性的空間策略。

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in developing an interactive system that acts as a moderator responding to changing needs and external environmental conditions (Fox and Kemp, 2009). An interactive architecture system is sought to have sustainable performance which continuously interacts with its environment. The interaction among humans, machines, and environments is concerned with manipulation and transformation of energy, materials and information; hence the interactive system doesn’t require any energy support for sustainable living (Dunn, 2002).
This research provides a literature review of green robotic eco-systems. One line of research work is to propose the "active sustainable solutions" of architecture to enhance moderation in the use of energy, and development space. An optimized system then combines distributed sensing, physical transformations, and computer control algorithms, enabling by dynamic management of the conditions in real time (Fox and Kemp, 2009).
The objective of this research is to develop an green robotic eco-system for sustainable environments. One of the fundamental questions is: "How can we design a zero-energy and self-sufficient interactive system to embrace the positive and useful changes effectively in the environment for sustainable living? "
In this paper, we illustrate how an interactive architecture system can generate the renewable energy from the negative natural resources. Kinetic control, energy efficiency, and self-sufficiency are the three design criteria for developing eco-machines in sustainable environments. The prototype called eco-machine acts as a building component "eco-machine" as sustainable building component which has the sustainable performance that has a great potential to decrease energy consumption as a strategy toward sustainable living.
