A system for placing objects on a surface. The system may include a base, a robotic arm coupled, at an end thereof, to the base, an end effector coupled to the other end of the robotic arm. The end effector may be configured for releaseably coupling to an object to be placed on the surface. The system may further include one or more sensor units on a sensor frame. The one or more sensor units may be configured for sensing a two-dimensional profile data including at least two two-dimensional profiles together comprising at least three boundary portions of the object to be placed and at least three boundary portions of objects on the surface. At least two of the three boundary portions of the object to be placed may be from substantially non-parallel sides. At least two of the three boundary portions of the objects on the surface may be from substantially non-parallel sides. The system may further include a processor configured to determine at least three degrees of freedom of the object to be placed with respect to the sensor frame and six degrees of freedom of the sensor frame with respect to the objects on the surface in a three-dimensional space for determining a current pose of the object to be placed with respect to the objects on the surface based on the two-dimensional profile data. Further, the system may be configured to place the object based on differences between the current pose and a desired pose of the object to be placed determined from a model of objects on the surface in the three-dimensional space.

The present invention provides a method for constructing an access floor by using unmanned robot, the method comprising: a first step (S100) of constructing an installation frame (10) and a peripheral slab (60) formed on the periphery of the installation frame; a second step (S200) of positioning the unmanned robot on the peripheral slab (60); and a third step (S300) of coupling a floor (30) to the installation frame (10) by the unmanned robot while moving along the peripheral slab (60). According to the present invention, an automated robot can install a mat and floor in place of a worker performing dangerous floor installation work, so as to prevent the occurrence of workplace safety accidents. Furthermore, through the installation of a mat and floor by the robot, floor installation location selection and leveling work can be quickly performed, so as to reduce the construction costs and shorten the construction period.

A construction system for construction work is applied to set up a construction object on a target position, and includes a carrier device, a coating structure, and a setup structure. A feed structure is arranged on the carrier device and is used to provide an intermediate material. The coating structure is used to coat the target position with the intermediate material. The setup structure is used to set up the construction object on the target position via the intermediate material.

An automated device is configured to move in contact with a building board. The automated device includes a chassis bearing a tool, the tool being configured to carry out a mechanical operation on the building board. The automated device includes at least one suction member and at least one system for setting the automated device in motion. The suction member includes at least two chambers allowing the automated device to adhere to the building board, the tool being situated between the at least two chambers.

A device for use in lifting, transporting and installing sheet material has a base, wheels on which the base is supported, a mast that extends upwardly from the base, a carriage that is in engagement with the mast, a supporting head that is mounted to the carriage, and a lifting mechanism to provide support to the carriage in the longitudinal direction of the mast. The wheels include rear wheels that are connected to the rear of the base in a manner that permits steering of the device during movement across a surface, and a front wheel set that is connected to the front of the base. The front wheel set includes a wheel to each side of the device, and the wheels of the front wheel set are rotatable about a common axis. The connection of the mast to the base is such that the mast is rotatable relative to the base about a rotational axis. The device further has an actuator that is operable to change the angular position of the mast relative to the base. The supporting head is configured to support sheet material above the surface.

A tile laying device has a main frame supported on wheels for rolling movement along a ground surface. A pendulum frame is supported on the main frame to be freely suspended from the main frame while being adjustable in height relative to the ground surface by tilting the main frame about the axis of the wheels. Suction cups on the pendulum frame allow a tile to be coupled to the tiles using vacuum pressure from a vacuum pump on the main frame. The suction cups can be shifted laterally in a direction of the pendulum axis relative to the main frame to assist in aligning a tile on the pendulum frame with a desired placement location for the tile.
