The photo of the wall in the article is obviously digitally altered, just to the left of the person walking. The rocks change into uniform smooth grey, and it doesn’t match the reflection in the water. Is it supposed to be the digital plan of the wall vs the real thing?
- rkangel 3y agoIt absolutely matches the reflection in the water - you can see the hard hat of the person and the colour transition. The change in colour will be the result of a change in source of boulder. The whole point is that they are "recycling".

- dryrocks 3y agoThe excavator creates a mesh of each stone by scanning it "in hand", and updates the settled positions of them as it builds. The left side of the image is the 3D digital twin model that is maintained by the system, captured from the same perspective to show how it matches the real wall.
- TomWhitwell 3y agoYes, I think it's an artistic interpretation of a digital model of the stones - how the autonomous system sees them.
