The
advent of construction robotics leads to many questions for today’s
contractors. How will construction technology evolve over the next 10
years? Will robots replace tasks that human crews perform today? How
might contractors choose when to use a robot and when to use human
labor?
Construction technology startups are already confronting
these questions from a product development perspective. How should they
design their products to be used? How do they intend for people and
machines to interact? Their decisions will have a significant impact on
how contractors run their businesses in the future.
