Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Constructing complex structures, such as buildings, requires the proper installation or assembly of manycomponents. Construction workers nee d to properly locate and install or assemble numerous components,such as beams, pipes, ducts, studs, walls, etc. For example, some complex structures have mill ions ofcomponents that need to be installed at a location within an accuracy of an eighth of an inch, or even lessin some cases. Unfortunately, the constructi on process is subject to errors, which can cause significantamounts of re-work and schedule delays. For example, a wall may be installed at a wrong location. I fthe error is not detected in a timely fashion, a significant amount of re-work may result. For example, aplumber may run water lines through the improperly l ocated wall, an electrician may run electrical wiresthrough the improperly loca ted wall, a carpenter may add sheetrock to the improperly located wall, etc.Whe n the error is detected, the wall may need to be demolished and rebuilt in the p roper location in orderto rectify the error, and the water lines, electrical wi res, and sheetrock, may need to be reinstalled. Sucherrors may cause significan t schedule delays and may result in significant additional costs for the construction project. Similar issues exist in the construction of other complex structu res, such as airplanes, ships,submarines, space vehicles, etc.”
