The next big thing in robotics and automation just might be construction. Technology has already revolutionized manufacturing and logistics, and now a number of well-funded startups are looking to do the same to the construction industry. This March at TC Sessions: Robotics+AI, we’ll be bringing together a trio of companies that have the industry and investors buzzing.
Noah Campbell-Ready is the founder and CEO of Built Robotics, a startup that has developed a heavy-duty autonomous bulldozer. But the system has already been piloted for 7,500 hours, with a perfect safety record. Because the company raised a $33 million Series B in September, bringing its total up to $48 million.
Tessa Lau is the CEO and founder of Dusty Robotics, a Bay Area-based startup that has developed a robot designed to help automate building layouts at construction sites. Also the robot is capable of bringing plans to life with extreme accuracy. Dusty raised a $5 million seed round last month.
Toggle CEO Daniel Blank will be rounding out the pan. A new kid on the block, the Brooklyn-based company raised a $3 million seed round in October for robots the fabricate and assemble rebar.
The companies will be joining us on stage at UC Berkeley on March 3 for TC Sessions: Robotics+AI to discuss how robotics and automation will help transform construction sites of the future.
