Human-centered assessment of robotics and exoskeletons in construction industry
The observed challenges highlight the gap between the early stages of system design and the realities of dynamic construction work, emphasising the need for a participatory, human-centred development approach. The findings suggest that a human-centred approach is essential for emerging technologies to be functional, safe, acceptable and effective in changing work environments.
