Abstract

This paper presents technologies for human-robot collaborative and sensor-based applications for robotics in construction. Principles, safety and control technologies of human-robot collaboration are outlined and sensor-assisted control of industrial robots as well as a dynamic safety system for industrial robots are described in more details. Applicability of sensor-based robotics in building construction and potential of robotics in building construction in general are also evaluated.
