The Leica ROBO was designed to minimize human error in the construction industry while saving money & time by preventing costly mistakes & reducing the number of workers. The device uses Leica’s EDM laser technology to determine where the device is located within the partially built building, then using a CAD model of the building, it paints lines on the ground where interior walls are to be placed. It also uses its laser to point to key mounting points on the ceiling for systems like fire supression & HVAC.

The company's planning to have the units shipping by January next year, when the 23lb box will set you back $600 without discs -- and if you're hard enough, you can find PR after the break.
