The application of robotics and automation in the construction industry is rapidly evolving into a thriving field. Construction stands out as one of the least digitalized and automated industries globally, presenting a vast opportunity for innovators to develop efficient robot applications with minimal competition. The repetitive nature of tasks in this sector makes it an ideal candidate for robotic systems to capitalize on. However, the industry still relies heavily on manual labor due to its relatively low cost and ease of implementation. Additionally, many construction tasks require human sensitivity, which is difficult to replicate with robots. Despite these challenges, as Genrich Altshuller once said, "Inventing is the resolution of technical contradictions." The construction industry presents a significant contradiction: developing robotic applications that can effectively substitute manual labor while maintaining cost-effectiveness. Our task focuses on creating a robot that optimizes logistics in construction sites. When discussing the construction industry, it's easy to overlook its unique characteristics compared to other industries. One major difference lies in logistic management, which is a highly optimized process in most industries but remains largely untouched in construction. The potential for automated logistics extends beyond this task, as raw materials are always needed on-site. Automating logistics is a crucial step towards building the construction industry 4.0, where the entire construction process is fully automated and human intervention is limited to supervisory roles.
