The early market for autonomous heavy equipment is not a fully robotic jobsite. It is repetitive, high-volume work like solar pile driving, where labor pressure and project scale make the math easier.
From autonomous dozers to an AI assistant that talks back, Cat's NVIDIA partnership is moving fast. We break down what's real, what's coming, and what it means for operators.
The Wisconsin hydraulics company behind the GenSteer steer-by-wire system has been building the guts of your equipment for 80 years. Now they're changing how it steers.
The two industrial giants signed an MoU at CONEXPO 2026 to co-develop hybrid hydraulic-electric systems, hydrogen solutions, and autonomous machine functions for construction equipment.
HD Construction Equipment rolled into Las Vegas with nine next-gen excavators across its Hyundai and Develon brands. The headliner? An autonomous digging system called Real-X that's no longer a concept.
Caterpillar, Dynapac, Bobcat, and Hitachi are all bringing autonomous machines or AI-powered tools to Las Vegas this week. The technology gap between demo and deployment is closing fast.
With the market projected to reach $18.16 billion this year and a 2.2 million worker shortage looming in North America, autonomous construction equipment is moving from experimental pilot programs to essential infrastructure.
The autonomous construction startup just became a unicorn, betting that retrofitting existing heavy equipment beats building from scratch.
Caterpillar's expanded collaboration with NVIDIA signals the most significant leap toward autonomous construction equipment yet, featuring AI-powered machines, voice-activated cab assistants, and digitally twinned factories.
Autonomous technology proven in mining is migrating to construction sites. We examine current capabilities, adoption barriers, and what's coming next.
