Caterpillar unveiled its AI-powered "Cat AI" system at CES, leveraging Nvidia's Jetson Thor platform to enhance construction equipment functionality. The technology, currently tested in the Cat 306 CR Mini Excavator, employs multiple AI agents to assist operators with real-time queries, safety alerts, and service coordination.

Brandon Hootman, Caterpillar's data and AI lead, emphasized the system's role in delivering critical information to operators without disrupting workflow. "Our customers don’t live in front of a laptop day in and day out; they live in the dirt," he noted, highlighting the practical benefits of hands-free data access.

The collaboration extends to digital twin development using Nvidia's Omniverse tools, enabling VIRTUAL construction site modeling for project planning. Caterpillar's existing machine telemetry—transmitting 2,000 data points per second—will feed these simulations to optimize material estimates and scheduling.
