| - Generated Summary: This paper proposes using multiple robots
| with different capabilities working together to map and digitize
| construction sites. The robots use exploration algorithms to
| autonomously navigate and scan the environment. Information from
| building plans helps guide the exploration. The multi-robot
| system is robust, efficient, and requires minimal human
| involvement.
|
| This all reads like the info was gathered from the abstract
| instead of the paper itself....that said, this is good AI
| generation info for IEEE explore to implement i guess

| I really like the Japanese / anime style.

| lay audience (rather than the intended audience of the paper).

| That is what it tries to do, the title, bulletpoints, summary

| when given an entire paper in the context window.

| conducted, but the abstract tells you what words to look for to
| find that.
