Construction Automation with Autonomous Mobile Robots: A Review

摘要

In this paper, we review state-of-the-art research into automated construction by autonomous mobile robots. Today, space research agencies seek to build infrastructure without human intervention; and construction companies look to robots as having the potential to achieve improvements in construction quality, efficiency, and safety, not to mention flexibility in architectural design. This paper addresses and classifies the relevant studies in terms of applications, materials, and robotic systems. We also identify ongoing challenges and discuss about future robotic requirements for the automated construction.
