Construction Productivity Improvement and Industry Growth Through Exoskeleton Technology
FY 2021-22 · 2021-04-01
Summary
Previous ACA initiatives in the area of emerging technologies in the construction industry have identified exoskeletons as a potential technology. Currently, exoskeleton penetration into the Alberta marketplace has been extremely limited, and construction firms have not had the opportunity to be exposed to this technology. ACA and its partners will provide a hands-on demonstration opportunity for industry members, and assess their experiences with and potential future investments in this emerging technology.

Description
Previous ACA initiatives in the area of emerging technologies in the construction industry have identified exoskeletons as a potential technology.

Description (French)
Les initiatives précédentes de l'ACA dans le domaine des technologies émergentes dans l'industrie de la construction ont permis de déterminer que les exosquelettes étaient une technologie potentielle. Actuellement, la percée des exosquelettes sur le marché albertain a été extrêmement restreinte, et les entreprises de construction n'ont pas eu l'occasion d'être exposées à cette technologie. L'ACA et ses partenaires offriront une démonstration pratique aux membres de l'industrie, et évalueront leurs expériences et leurs investissements potentiels dans cette technologie émergente.
