A framework for robotic excavation and dry stone construction using on-site materials

data to facilitate the online detection and segmentation of stone instances in spatial maps, enabling robotic grasping and textured 3D scanning of individual stones and rubble elements. Given a limited inventory of these digitized stones, our geometric planning algorithm uses a combination of constrained registration and signed-distance-field classification to determine how these should be positioned toward the formation of stable and explicitly shaped structures. We present a holistic approach for the robotic manipulation of complex objects toward dry stone construction and use the same hardw
