Artificial Intelligence is becoming increasingly important across global construction, infrastructure and industrial technology, influencing how projects are visualised, coordinated, delivered and managed over time.
Editorial disclosure: This article forms part of Highways.Today’s Construction Marketing Month. Highways.Today provides the Expert Article Writing and Publishing se...
ASTM International has reorganised its emerging technology work around a much broader remit, replacing its Advanced Manufacturing Division with a Critical and Emerging Te...
A faded speed-limit sign is normally an asset-maintenance problem. For a vehicle relying on machine vision, it can also become something rather more complicated. Research...
Five employees started building software for the ready-mix concrete industry in 1976. Fifty years later, Command Alkon says its systems sit behind more than 690,000 dispa...
A dispatcher deciding where to send an empty truck, a recruiter trying to fill a driving position and a claims manager chasing a missing proof of delivery appear to be de...
The Pasig River is only 27 kilometres long, yet it is estimated to carry around 63,000 tonnes of plastic into the ocean each year. Across Metro Manila, more than 48 tribu...
Artificial intelligence is beginning to acquire something it largely avoided during the first wave of generative AI adoption: a physical location. For governments, infras...
Zeroth has opened global bookings for Bridge, an 88 cm humanoid robot weighing about 13 kg, but the hardware may be the less interesting part of the launch. Alongside it...
A 10.4-tonne magnet arriving on a flatbed truck might appear an unlikely symbol of compact engineering. Yet the central magnet bundle delivered to the Princeton Plasma Ph...
New tools are giving ambitious specialist companies greater reach, intelligence and freedom to experiment, but established brands still begin with formidable advantages F...
Artificial intelligence has already become reasonably good at finding things on construction drawings. The more difficult problem begins after something has been found. A...
Raleigh is building a digital representation of the city that is designed to change whenever the city itself does. Drone surveys of construction sites, infrastructure, st...
Brazil enters Paving Expo 2026 with a rather different road infrastructure market from the one exhibitors were addressing only a few years ago. The federal highway conces...
Singapore’s International Built Environment Week returns to Marina Bay Sands from 2 to 4 September with artificial intelligence occupying a much more practical posi...
Infopro Digital Automotive will arrive at Automechanika Frankfurt in September with a considerably broader business than it took to previous editions. Acquisitions includ...
A remotely operated gate controlling access to an express lane looks like a piece of highway equipment. Behind it, however, sits something increasingly familiar from fact...
Engineering simulation is beginning to acquire a second workload alongside the computational fluid dynamics, finite element analysis and other numerical models that have...
More than 200 exhibiting brands will gather at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore from 2 to 4 September for BEX Asia 2026, but one number gives a better indication of where th...
An excavator working to a 3D model can leave behind far more than the finished formation. Machine control records where it worked, while telematics can provide another hi...
NVIDIA has made its 34-billion-parameter Alpamayo 2 Super autonomous-driving model available for commercial use, giving vehicle developers permission to fine-tune, modify...
The familiar vision of construction autonomy is a physical one. An autonomous excavator works a site while drones survey progress overhead and robotic equipment handles t...
One hundred years ago the construction equipment industry crossed a threshold it never crossed back over. Steam shovels, cable excavators and the first crawler dozers rep...
Japanโs latest wave of artificial intelligence investment matters because it is moving beyond isolated software trials and into the machinery, factories, transport system...
Managing extensive landscapes has traditionally required a compromise between scale and detail. Satellite imagery can cover large territories, while ground surveys reveal...
Construction’s stubborn productivity problem has a well-documented choke point, and it sits in the pre-construction office rather than on site. Before a single cond...
The industrial autonomy market is entering a new phase where engineering execution, certification and scalable deployment are becoming just as important as advances in ar...
The materials that will decide the next decade of infrastructure, from longer-lasting batteries to cleaner-burning fuels and secure supplies of critical minerals, all beg...
Autonomous vehicles are coming to the UK but are our roads ready? The lane-keep assist and driver safety systems fitted to millions of cars depend on being able to read r...
Graitec, the French-headquartered structural software developer and one of the world’s largest Autodesk partners, has set out an artificial intelligence strategy th...
Climate resilience has become a board-level priority for infrastructure owners, yet many organisations remain constrained by the very systems intended to help them manage...
A funding round that closed in early June has thrown a spotlight on one of the least glamorous corners of the built environment, the pipes nobody thinks about until somet...
Construction has spent decades digitising design, modelling and project management, yet one of the industryโs most commercially sensitive processes still relies heavily o...
Autonomous mobility has spent the better part of a decade trapped between bold promises and limited pilot programmes. Cities around the world have witnessed impressive de...
Urban mobility is changing faster than many traffic management systems can keep pace with. New housing developments, changing commuting patterns, growing demand for publi...
The construction and infrastructure sector has never faced greater pressure to evolve. Governments are investing heavily in transport, energy and urban development. Contr...
The commercial drone sector is entering a new phase. What began as a technology largely associated with aerial photography and experimental inspection programmes has evol...
Electricity markets are entering one of the most significant periods of change since the liberalisation of power trading. Across North America and Europe, renewable gener...
Large-scale additive manufacturing has long promised to reshape how infrastructure, transportation and industrial equipment are designed and produced. From customised bui...
Somewhere beneath a residential street in Singapore last year, an acoustic sensor picked up a sound no human ear would have noticed. A faint, persistent signature against...
Autonomous driving has spent years focused on vision. Cameras, radar and lidar systems have steadily improved how vehicles identify obstacles, interpret traffic behaviour...
