Robot Trucks guided by Drones at Construction Sites

Komatsu now makes construction vehicles that can drive themselves, guided by drones.

Automating construction with visual intelligence: Skycatch + Japan’s Komatsu Smart Construction join forces, to deploy the world’s most advanced robotics solution:

First, drones fly over the construction site, taking pictures, then software transform these pictures into 3D maps, and then site planners add in the information which areas will be left intact, and other details.
