Purchased this spring by BSCI, Mac already has been used on construction sites and in classrooms at Auburn.
Key Points:
- Purchased this spring by BSCI, Mac already has been used on construction sites and in classrooms at Auburn.
- Basically, any research question we develop is untested because we've never had autonomous robots on jobsites like we have now.
- LiDAR scans help researchers and construction managers monitor progress of a project or site with high-quality, dynamic images.
- The Birmingham-based construction firmwhose name adorns the CADC's Gorrie Centerhas a Boston Dynamics SPOT dog of its own they call Benji.
