Problem
The construction industry faces a shortage of skilled workers, leading to increased labor costs and project delays. Traditional manual construction processes are prone to errors, require rework, and expose workers to safety risks, particularly when working at heights or in hazardous conditions.
Solution
Raise Robotics offers a semi-autonomous robotic platform designed to automate tasks on commercial construction sites, improving safety and productivity. Their flagship robot, Wright v2.5, is a versatile, all-terrain platform equipped with interchangeable tooling for various applications, including bracket layout, FOS/TOS clip installation, concrete & embed inspection, and drilling. The robot's extended reach and rugged design enable it to perform tasks beyond edge guarding, reducing worker exposure to dangerous environments. By automating repetitive and physically demanding tasks, Raise Robotics helps alleviate labor shortages, minimizes errors, and improves overall project outcomes.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes glazing contractors, general contractors, and construction companies seeking to improve job site safety, increase productivity, and alleviate labor shortages.
