Bedrock Robotics
Bedrock Robotics provides a retrofit autonomy platform that converts existing excavators, loaders, and other earth-moving equipment into self-navigating machines. The system combines multi-modal sensors with large-scale machine-learning models trained on tens of thousands of field hours to enable safe, precise, and continuous operation on construction sites. Contractors can accelerate schedules and scale output without purchasing new machinery.

Problem
Construction sites rely on manually operated heavy machinery, which creates safety hazards, leads to inconsistent productivity, and often causes project delays due to human error and limited equipment utilization. Skilled operators are in short supply, and the projects communities depend on risk delays, downsizing, or never even breaking ground.
Solution
Bedrock Robotics offers the Bedrock Operator, a retrofit-ready autonomy platform that converts existing excavators, loaders, and other earth-moving equipment into self-navigating machines. The system combines high-resolution perception sensors with large-scale machine-learning models trained on tens of thousands of field hours to recognize terrain, obstacles, and job-site plans in real time. By continuously mapping the environment and enforcing a safety envelope around the equipment, the platform reduces the risk of accidents and enables 24/7 operation. Integrated cloud analytics provide operators and managers with live performance metrics, progress tracking, and predictive maintenance alerts. The solution is delivered as a hardware kit plus a subscription-based software stack, allowing contractors to accelerate schedules, lower rework, and scale output without purchasing new machinery.
Target Audience
Primary customers are large construction contractors, equipment owners, and infrastructure developers who operate fleets of excavators, loaders, and similar heavy machinery and seek to improve safety, productivity, and project timelines.
Features
- Retrofit hardware package with multi-modal sensors (LiDAR, stereo cameras, GNSS) that mounts on standard heavy-equipment interfaces
- Real-time perception pipeline that fuses sensor data to generate a 3D site model and detect dynamic obstacles
- Large-scale deep-learning models trained on nationwide construction projects to execute site-specific tasks with expert-level precision
- Autonomous motion planning engine that adapts to changing terrain, trenches, and boulders while respecting predefined safety zones
- Cloud-based dashboard delivering live telemetry, productivity KPIs, and remote override capabilities for supervisors
- Predictive maintenance analytics that flag component wear and schedule service before failures occur
- API and FHIR-compatible integration points for existing fleet-management and enterprise resource planning systems
