WEST FARGO, N.D. (Dec. 11, 2025) – Doosan Bobcat Inc., a Doosan Group company and a leading global equipment manufacturer, will unveil a series of groundbreaking technologies at CES 2026 that bring artificial intelligence out of the cloud and onto the jobsite, delivering smarter, more intuitive equipment designed to simplify the operator experience.
As the construction industry faces major shifts, Bobcat is solving against three critical challenges to support the future of work:
- Transitions in the construction industry workforce
- Inconvenient equipment downtime
- Increasing jobsite complexity
At CES, Bobcat will preview innovations built specifically to address these priorities with accessible, human-first design.
Making Machines Easier to Operate
The industry is at a critical inflection point: 41% of the U.S. construction workforce is expected to retire by 2031*, taking decades of expertise with them. Bobcat will introduce AI-driven capabilities intended to simplify equipment operation for the next generation of workers. These advancements will deliver real-time guidance and simplify complex tasks for novice operators, while helping experienced operators boost productivity and enhance precision.
Diagnosing and Fixing Machines Faster
Equipment downtime slows progress and reduces productivity—especially for owners relying on a single machine to complete the job. Bobcat will showcase an AI-powered innovation that accelerates diagnostics and troubleshooting by giving technicians fast access to machine insights, historical repair knowledge and guided support, helping keep equipment up and running and jobs moving forward.
Enhancing Jobsite Awareness
Modern jobsites are becoming increasingly complex. Bobcat will preview radar technology designed to aid operator awareness, detect hazards and help the operator address collision risks through real-time monitoring and interventions.
In addition to these AI-driven advancements, Bobcat will also debut:
- A next-generation operator display experience that integrates essential jobsite information directly into the operator’s field of view
- A forward-looking concept machine
- A rugged, stackable electric power system for compact equipment
Together, these technologies represent Bobcat’s vision for bringing AI and next-generation intelligence to where it matters most: on the ground, in the machine and in the hands of the people doing the work.
Full details and demonstrations will be revealed during Bobcat’s CES Media Days press conference on Jan. 5 at 2 p.m. in Mandalay Bay I, with immersive experiences available in the Doosan booth at the Las Vegas Convention Center, West Hall 5840.
