Cone-Bot
The Cone-Bot is a 16' x 16' x 80' (by Inches) remote-controlled robot that carries a cone with an option for a traffic sign. Yes this may seem useless and a waste of time and money. However, when we manufacture tens, hundreds of these cone-carrying bots, the cost of labor to move these cones and risk of injury decrease significantly. What used to take many workers to place these cones in an orderly fashion now requires one technician (located other than the site) controlling the coordinates of these robots. These bots will also carry routers that can receive signals from an airborne drone or a quadcopter.
