## Abstract

An autonomous construction machine system is disclosed. The system includes a construction machine equipped with a hydraulic arm that supports modular tool attachments, such as diggers and augers, each featuring vacuum suction for material handling. The tools are interchangeably attached to the hydraulic arm, enabling for a wide range of construction activities, including digging, tilling, and leveling. A digital tablet for facilitating remote operation and configuration of the machine via a wireless communication network is included in the system. The machine also includes a display screen and a control pad, enabling on-site configuration and visualization of tasks. The machine uses AI chip for autonomous operation of the hydraulic arm and the other attachments based on the construction tasks configuration received through the tablet or the screen.
