Next time you drive on a national highway, do not be surprised if you see a robot redirecting vehicles off a construction patch. Some road construction companies have started using robots as flagmen, and if the road ministry has its way, the trend may soon catch up with the rest.

The robotic flagman is an automated human skeleton structure made up of plastic mounted over a stand area supported with steel frame, sometimes supported with wheels. This, road construction companies and the road ministry are hopeful, will help cut down on both labour costs and loss of human lives.
