The display on construction equipment is showing the "blueprint" of what the site should look like when done, something that cannot be done with individual switches. The machine is then driving the correct path (using GPS) to make the site look like the blueprint. This is similar to self driving, except that they don't pretend they are safe to operate on public streets.
