Autonomous Robotics for Infrastructure Repair

MCML PI Matthias Althoff was mentioned in VentureCapital Magazin in the context of the Munich robotics startup Sitegeist.

Founded in 2025 as a spin-off of the Technical University of Munich, the company originates from the robotics research environment associated with Althoff’s chair. The startup brings together expertise in AI, robotics, and infrastructure technology to develop autonomous robotic systems capable of repairing damaged concrete structures directly on construction sites.

The technology aims to improve efficiency in infrastructure maintenance and address labor shortages in the construction sector by enabling AI-driven robots to independently detect and remove deteriorated material.
