Meet Max. He’s the first heavy equipment operator in the world to run multiple articulated dump trucks (ADTs) at once. He does this while sitting comfortably in Fort Myers, Florida while the ADTs are on the job site 40 miles away in Naples, Florida. This is because Tomahawk Construction recently became the first customer to install Teleo Supervised Autonomy, unlocking autonomous and remote-operated capabilities on their machines. While the machines are set to autonomous mode, they can perform routine and repetitive tasks on their own. When needed, Max can take over to handle more complex tasks remotely and easily switch between machines at the tap of a button. What does that mean for Tomahawk Construction? A solution to the labor shortage that typically means spiraling project costs and timelines. “Ever since we have installed Teleo units on the trucks, we haven't had one sitting,” noted Lyons. “It lets us expand who we would typically hire for a haul truck. So today we'll see one operator per three trucks.” Watch the video to see how Teleo is changing the game for the heavy equipment industry. #supervisedautonomy #articulateddumptrucks #autonomy #construction https://lnkd.in/dxtzkr7P

Allied to this is the fact that demolition technology is advancing globally, which is having a positive impact on the local sector. While demolition robots and remote demolition have been available for many years, there are limitations to the technology. For example, Jet Demolition (Pty) Ltd has remote-control units that can be fitted to its plant... Click here to read this article: https://lnkd.in/dYShtU23 #robots #technology #demolition

Speaking to Construction News, our health and safety regulation expert Jeremy Woodcraft says that when it comes to construction works, drones are the logical next step when working at a height and are reasonable practice to use for inspections instead of requiring a worker to do it. https://ow.ly/20ro50R95Ky *This article is behind a paywall.

According to the regulator, the paper is intended to remove barriers holding Australia back from a more productive, younger, sustainable, and safer heavy vehicle fleet.
