An Australian company, Fast Brick construction, has developed a robot mounted on a truck that is capable of building a house from start to finish.

The Robot has succeeded in completing a two-course structure, involving all combinations of brick cuts, sizes, and layering configurations. The machine converts a 3D model to code, and uses proprietary software to calculate the location of every brick in the building.

Once the concrete slab is laid, the laser scanning technology surveys the foundation and then loads and arranges bricks using a 28m articulated telescopic boon.

This robot has huge potential to decrease construction costs in housing and commercial development in the future.
