From Construction Dive: One of the largest homebuilders in the U.S. claims it has rapidly constructed a Florida residence using artificial intelligence and robotics.
PulteGroup announced Feb. 20 the successful pilot of the Hadrian X system, an AI-guided construction robot from Australian-based automation tech firm FBR. The test took place at the community of TerraWalk in Babcock Ranch, Florida, which PulteGroup said will become the nation’s first solar-powered town.
Hadrian X is capable of building structural walls in a single day, according to PulteGroup. The automated system uses an advanced robotic arm to place concrete blocks, which are then secured using a specialized adhesive that bonds twice as strong as traditional mortar, per the release.
