Shanxi Road and Bridge Infrastructure Robots Deployed in Construction Sites

Shanxi Road and Bridge Infrastructure Robot Technology Co., Ltd. has deployed eight prototype infrastructure robots, including tunnel surveying, welding, and quality inspection units, to replace manual labor in high-risk construction tasks like tunnel monitoring and bridge welding. The company, a subsidiary of Shanxi Road and Bridge Group, utilizes embodied AI technology developed through a university-industry joint laboratory with Fudan University. These robots are currently in demonstration phases within specific highway projects such as the Taiyuan Connection Line, covering functions from point cloud scanning to automated quality reporting. The article notes the company is preparing for small-batch production and listing on the Beijing Stock Exchange, while emphasizing that these deployments aim to reduce human risk in complex environments like tunnels and precast beam yards.
