Our take
Operating a massive piece of heavy equipment like a bullddozer for 8-10 hours a day is a challenging job. It's tiring, unsafe and requires a great deal of synchronisation with other workers and vehicles on the job. Teleo is lightening this burden for construction teams with remote and autonomous control of heavy equipment.
The startup has pursued a pragmatic “crawl-walk-run” approach to deliver the benefits of supervised autonomy now. Instead of having each machine in a fleet operated by a driver in a cab, they’re all being controlled remotely by a single human operator miles away from the job site.
The hope is that the technology matures toward fully autonomous heavy equipment operation. Like any new, next-generation technology, it can take some getting used to. However construction workers are simply adapting to robots on site as a another tool to get the job done, putting Teleo in a strong position as it sets out to disrupt the construction industry.
