>have robots scoop up dirt
NASA swampworks has been developing a rover that does this for around a decade. Its called RASSOR

This video is a swampworks engineer talking about it as well as the printing and collaborations they have for the project. this video was 3 years ago

this is a video of the old design like a decade ago

if you search youtube for this past year you will find all the design change proposals for the buckets. Which NASA has crowdsourced just like they did for the 3D printing.

Its definitely a challenge but its been in the works for a long time and is further along then people think.

>all with minimal human assistance?
Yes that is what They attempted to do in the 3d printing challenge, same with Swampworks but we will highlight the challenge because it was done under crazy time restraints with the goal of being entirely autonomous or remote.

The company contracted for the lunar base designs has already been printing homes on earth with minimal human assistance

Its also being done in plenty of other places.

This one is being done with an arm similar to the one proposed

so the minimal assistance tech is there
