Corporate Controller, Dusty

Dusty has designed a hyper-specific, high-demand robot for the construction industry. It’s an automated printing machine that lays down full-scale floor markings for construction projects, with 1mm accuracy and rich floor lines and labelling capabilities (now including QR codes). This is a task normally carried out manually, with chalk, so Dusty’s solution offers substantial benefits in terms of accuracy, saved time, and ultimately saved costs.

Because the construction sector has resisted automation for so long, Dusty is an early entrant to a pretty uncluttered market. Firstly, it’s meant the company has been able to rapidly whip up lucrative contracts with dozens of national construction companies like DPR and Swinerton. Secondly, it means the highly pedigreed development team has a comfortable scope to bring new robots to what’s expected to be an especially cash-flush, international market over the years to come.
