A Proposed Language, Syntax and Structure for Communication between the Robotics and Construction Communities

Abstract

Robotics and construction have at least one common characteristic, both are manifestly fragmented and subject to high levels of specialisation. As such, the sources of information and knowledge necessary to bridge the interface between the two communities is difficult to identify, and effecting comprehension of their technologies and cultures is problematic. This paper outlines a collaborative project which seeks to develop a new common language, syntax and structure to enable effective communication between the two communities.
