HD Hyundai XiteSolution, one of South Korea’s leading excavator companies, has been selected to lead a government-funded project to develop simulations for unmanned autonomous excavators.
HD Hyundai XiteSolution will establish standard requirements for a parts database for virtual simulations and handle field validation and operational-scenario assessments, among other tasks.
This is also expected to accelerate development of HD Hyundai XiteSolution’s futuristic excavator, ‘Future-X.’
Taking the lead in the market for AI-powered unmanned autonomous construction machinery is a matter of survival for South Korean construction-equipment companies.
