Industrial Robot’s Joanne Pransky interviews Tessa Lau, CEO at Dusty Robotics about Dusty’s autonomous mobile robots that print layout plans onto the floors of job sites using information from building information models (BIM) as a guide.

Collaborations with firms will help Spot robot navigate job sites to capture data and track progress.

Systems convert existing vehicles into fully autonomous equipment.

AMP Cortex Significantly Increases Productivity While Providing a Comprehensive Solution to Recycle Fiber and Other Materials.

Currently, commercial drone usage primarily contained to energy, construction, and agriculture.

The use of drones in construction is expected to rise, particularly as surveyors, builders, realtors, and insurers apply new techniques such as AR and VR for gathering and understanding data.

Improved efficiency, collaboration features and artificial intelligence can help construction projects improve manual processes and address a labor shortage.

Companies that use commercial drones in the air and underground earned big investments in recent weeks.

Language barriers and culture limitations could be eased through the use of ‘robot ambassadors’; construction robots disrupt labor force in some countries while helping others facing shortage of human workers.

Surgical funding, software development, and educational robots were some of the highlights of the past week’s automation transactions.
