Motivation

  • Reliance on manually operated machinery and human labor on construction sites

  • Challenges include high costs, hazardous work conditions, and skilled labor shortage

  • Construction sites are unstructured and dynamic, making automation complex

Goal

  • Research on transition from manual to fully autonomous construction sites

  • Transform construction sites into safer, more efficient, and collaborative environments by integrating autonomous and intelligent machinery

Key objectives

  • Develop multi-level interaction frameworks between humans and machines, and between machines themselves

  • Develop intelligent perception and decision-making algorithms for communication

  • Implement use cases with small-to-medium-sized machinery
