## Footage

Built Robotics footage of its Exosystem, a retrofit kit (cameras, GPS, and compute) that makes a standard excavator autonomous for tasks such as trenching. Genuine task-bounded autonomy, but geofenced to a defined work area and supervised by an on-site operator who sets the job and monitors.
