English Lecture 13 I. Read The Text Carefully!: Automation and Robotics in Construction
The ideal situation in future construction world looks like a space where
people and robots co-work and interact with one another. Large volume
structures will be built widely with preassembled components. Intelligent
robots will work to assemble predominantly heavy components. Each robot
will be able to communicate easily with people.
