Rise of autonomy to be seen at Bauma

The organisers of the Bauma Munich exhibition say the development of autonomous and semi-autonomous construction machines is likely to be one of the major talking points at the event, which will run from October 24-30 this year.

Visitors to the event will be able to hear the results of a three-year-long study of this and other digital technology, from a group called Machines in Construction 4.0 (MiC 4.0), which was established during the last Bauma exhibition by leading German industry associations, HDB and VDMA.
