High-Tech SAM Bricklaying Robot Can Build Massive Walls 6-Times Faster Than Humans

Let's face it, building walls takes time, and lots of manpower, that is unless...you're using SAM (Semi-Automated Mason). This high-tech robot, created by NY-based Construction Robotics, aims to increase productivity while reducing overall labor costs. The company claims that it can lay bricks at least six times faster than humans, without err. Continue reading for another video and more information.

"Costing around $500,000, SAM isn't cheap, but it's a potentially transformative tool in revolutionizing future building sites. SAM is already working on building sites around the U.S. and recently received an upgrade to SAM OS 2.0. which allows it to lay 'soldier course' bricks," reports Digital Trends.
