Strata is building autonomous heavy equipment for construction, starting with material handling.


Why Strata

Heavy infrastructure cannot be built fast enough to fulfill the promises of American reindustrialization. With labor availability tightening and the workforce aging, construction faces a multi-trillion-dollar execution gap over the next decade. Strata is bringing autonomous heavy iron to the jobsite, so America can build safer and faster, at scale.

The system

Strata is developing a machine to move palletized materials around outdoor construction sites. Our initial focus is supervised handling within a defined work area—from picking up a load to placing it where it is needed.
Starting with the movement of materials from storage to the point of use.
Align the forks with the pallet and lift the load.
Carry materials through the designated work area.
Set the load down at its destination, with human verification on site.
The machine, sensing and controls are being developed together on a platform of our own.
