Dusty Robotics alternatives

Dusty Robotics does one defined thing: its FieldPrinter robot marks out where walls, fixtures and services go on a construction floor, sold today only in North America from its Mountain View base, with about US$69M raised through its Series B. Contractors and owners comparing it against broader robot categories are really deciding how specialised a machine they want. Engineered Arts builds social humanoids in Falmouth, Cornwall for museums, science centres, education and events, a public-facing role about as far from a building site as robotics gets. Estun Automation supplies the general industrial end, articulated, SCARA, palletising and collaborative robots shipped from Nanjing, with subsidiaries and partners across Europe, the Americas and Asia. Gideon automates the warehouse leg of a project instead, running autonomous forklifts for material handling in logistics, manufacturing and retail sites across North America, the United Kingdom and Europe. Hexagon Robotics is the newest name here: a division of the Swedish measurement group Hexagon AB, headquartered for robotics in Zurich, which launched its AEON industrial humanoid in June 2025 and is running pilots at partner sites in Europe. Layout accuracy on site is Dusty's whole case; materials movement points to Gideon, production lines to Estun, visitor-facing spaces to Engineered Arts, and buyers tracking a measurement group's move into humanoids to Hexagon.
