Accession Number: 00636292
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Worldwide, small-scale robotic construction applications have existed for approximately 3 decades. Government, universities, industry (e.g., construction companies and construction equipment manufacturers), research laboratories, and research institutions have all been involved and are still pursuing work in the application of robotics in construction. The participation of different countries in this area is summarized; only those countries that have been comparatively active in their efforts are included. On the basis of analysis and some field observations, the author concludes that the Japanese are advanced in the application robotics in construction. However, worldwide efforts, cooperation, and dedication are needed to improve, develop, and capitalize on the potential worldwide benefits of construction robotization.
