Robotic Construction System Emerging robotics technology may lead to better buildings in less time. Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana robotics technology may Eandmerging soon help construction companies contractors create buildings in less time at higher quality and at lower costs. Innovators developed and are testing a novel construction robotic system that uses a mechanical design with advances in computer vision sensing technology to work in a construction setting. On a construction site, there are many unknown factors that a construction robot must be able to account for effectively. This requires much more advanced sensing and reasoning technologies than those commonly used in a manufacturing environment. The team's custom end effector design allows for material to be both placed and fastened in the same opera- Motion Design, April 2021 A novel construction robotic system uses an innovative mechanical design with advances in computer vision sensing technology to work in a construction setting.
