Survey and site perception
Reliable mapping needs coordinate systems, changing environments, dust and occlusion handling.
Robotic building processes
Automated fabrication and installation require tolerances, sequencing, material handling and human trade coordination.
Jobsite safety
Worker proximity, machine exclusion zones, supervision and local occupational rules require risk controls.
Frequently asked questions
Why is construction harder to automate than factories?
Every site changes, with variable surfaces, weather, trades and building designs.
Can robots operate fully autonomously on building sites?
Only within defined conditions and appropriate safety controls; broad claims need evidence.
