i-Con Walker, a material transport robot that realizes a digital twin of infrastructure

Abstract

In order to realize a digital twin, the 3D model must be a 3D model measured on-site rather than design model data. The model data should also be updated sequentially. On the other hand, it is not desirable from the viewpoint of labor saving and cost reduction to create a new task only for updating model data. In this technology development, 3D scanning by TLS is made parallel work for an autonomous mobile robot that can transport materials linked to BIM / CIM, i-Con Walker that can acquire 3D data by point cloud in addition to realizing the task of material transportation On-site demonstration showed its effect.
