Honda Shows Off Its Autonomous Offroad Work Vehicle at WOC 2020, Wants Test Partners

Robotics is making a big push in the construction industry lately, including Boston Dynamics’ Spot robot dog, the TyBot rebar tying robot, Built Robotics’ self-driving track loader, or even 3D printing machines. Some threaten to reduce the need for certain labor, or at least displace it, while others, such as Honda’s recently announced Autonomous off-road ATV, merely wants to be your friend and lend you a hand — for now, anyway.

혼다가 선보인 건설현장 등 사용 자율 작업 차량(AWV) 혼다는 월드 콘크리트 2020에서 최근 발표한 혼다 자율 작업 차량(AWV)의 시제품을 선보이며, 기계용 솔루션에 대한 협업을 도울 수 있는 업계 파트너를 찾고 있다. AWV는 가장 기본적으로는 프로그램 가능한 화물 장비로서 독특하고 직선적인 패턴으로 프로그래밍할 수 있으며, 피로를 줄이는 데 도움이 되는 "Follow me" 모드도 있다. 이 시제품은 혼다의 ATV 섀시와 4륜 구동 시스템을 기반으로 제작 현장에서 볼 수 있는 것처럼 건설현장처럼 거친 지형을 다루는데 도움을 준다. 또한 GPS, 카메라, 센서를 갖추고 있어 사이트를 통해 이를 안내하고 자신과 다른 사람들이 피해를 입지 않도록 한다. Honda는 AWV를 위해 비즈니스와 기술 파트너로부터 잠재적인 실제 애플리케이션을 찾고 있다. 이와 같은 기계에는 많은 용도가 있으므로, 혼다와 잠재적으로 협력하고 싶다면, AWV@hra.com으로 이메일을 보낼 수 있다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Chul Hwang, conpaper editor, curator |

At the World of Concrete 2020, Honda showed off their prototype of their recently announced Honda Autonomous Work Vehicle (AWV) and are seeking industry partners to help collaborate on solutions for the machine.

At its most basic, the AWV is a programmable cargo hauler that is able to be programmed with unique or straight-line patterns, as well as a “follow me” mode to help reduce fatigue while lending an extra hand. The prototype is based on Honda’s ATV chassis and four-wheel drive system to help it handle rough terrain like would be found on construction sites. It also features GPS, cameras, and sensors to help guide it through the site and keep itself and others out of harm’s way.
But that’s just the beginning. With its rail accessory mounting system and onboard power plug-ins, the engineers at Honda are envisioning endless possibilities for usefulness on the jobsite. As you’ll see in the video at the bottom of this article, there are conceptual drawings for things like plow and excavator attachments in addition to its obvious hauling abilities.
That’s where you come in…Honda is seeking potential real-world applications from both businesses and technology partners for their AWV. There are a lot of possible uses for a machine like this, so if you want to potentially collaborate with Honda, you can email AWV@hra.com.
This isn’t the first robotics company to take this approach either. The aforementioned Boston Dynamics’ Spot Robot Dog sought technology and construction industry partners for collaborations, and many of those are still ongoing.
