Over the past two decades, the field of Robotics in Construction has evolved into an interdisciplinary research domain that combines a multitude of pressing technologies. This work introduces an innovative review framework that assesses the interconnection between robotics in construction and automation, while also examining advancements in technologies. In this research, a novel classification framework was created and a comprehensive literature review was performed to shed light on recent developments in the field of robotic construction. The objectives are to delineate the diverse dimensions of robotics in construction, uncover the underlying themes and sub-themes within these dimensions, identify key research gaps in the current studies, and provide recommendations for future research endeavors. This paper concluded that the existing research focus primarily on technical aspects in robotics within construction, neglecting environmental considerations, while identifying a lack of long-term studies on structural performance, hindering concerns about durability. Additionally, challenges persist in integrating robotics into construction workflows without disruption, compounded by the absence of standardized practices and regulations, alongside concerns about safe humanrobot interaction, affordability, and accessibility. Furthermore, inadequate training programs for workers and ethical concerns regarding job displacement, privacy, and societal impacts underscore the need for careful examination in the responsible and ethical deployment of robotics technologies. Finally, research efforts should emphasize the development of user-friendly interfaces and ergonomic designs for construction robots to Journal of Building Design and Environment enhance their usability and acceptance among workers, ultimately contributing to the successful integration of robotics into construction practices.

“…AR-based cognitive assistance systems offer a significant potential to enhance the productivity and agility of industrial systems [28][29][30]. These devices not only facilitate efficient information representation but also assist operators in perceiving, receiving and processing information [31,32]. By considering the individual roles, qualifications and personal characteristics of employees, it is possible to adapt information specifically to the user and the environment, thus achieving an optimal distribution of information in production plants and increasing the efficiency of industrial processes [33,34].…”

In the context of Industry 4.0, industrial environments are at a crossroads, facing the challenge of greater flexibility and significant technical skills gaps. In this situs, Augmented Reality (AR) emerges as a transformative tool, enhancing the synergy between technical staff and emerging technologies. This article focuses on exploring the integration of AR in Industry 4.0, with a particular emphasis on its role in improving technical assistance and training. The research addresses the ways in which AR not only facilitates more efficient processes but also acts as an essential bridge for training and skills development in constantly changing technological environments. It investigates the significant impact of AR on both optimising work processes and training workers to meet the emerging challenges of Industry 4.0. Through a qualitative analysis, the studies are categorised according to their application domains, grouping them into specific thematic areas. Subsequently, a meta-analysis is conducted to determine the actual impact of AR in the sector. The findings reveal a positive and significant correlation between the implementation of AR and its effectiveness in assistance and training in the framework of Industry 4.0. Finally, the article delves into an analysis of current limitations and challenges, providing insights into possible developments and trends in the use of AR for assistance and training in Industry 4.0.

Construction robots employ cutting-edge technology to perform tasks more accurately than traditional construction workers, producing higher-quality results and fewer mistakes. Moreover, although construction robotics is a demanding topic in construction sector research, more review studies that track and anticipate adoption trends are required in the construction sector. This study aims to bridge this gap by identifying the adoption challenges and limitations of construction robots and the opportunities offered to the construction sector. To achieve this aim, the study adopts a systematic literature review approach using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) protocol. Additionally, the systematic literature review focuses on the framework for categorizing technological advances and potential trends in development over the past decade. The review results reveal that: (a) current robotic technology covered four critical perspectives including perception, mobility, manipulation, and collaboration; (b) promoting the sector requires attention to safety and ethical issues because of the risks associated.
