The same construction equipment manufacturers who brought you automated grade control precision and efficiency anticipate full autonomy as the next leap forward.

Historical Construction Equipment Association
Elevating graders adapted to motor graders in the 1950s, excelling in excavation tasks and material handling with belt improvements.
