Automate reality capture with robots

Send robots equipped with 360 cameras and LiDAR scanners to track construction progress when building data centers.

All-in-one site reality capture

Robots are the ideal reality capture tool for large construction projects like data center builds. With DroneDeploy, robots can be sent on autonomous inspection missions to capture 360 walkthroughs and LiDAR data. Track build progress, share data with stakeholders, validate work and compare point cloud data with BIMs. All without manual inspections or scanning.

All your reality capture data in one place

  • Perform autonomous 360 site reality capture on a weekly or daily basis
  • Compare regular survey scans with BIM models and avoid rework
  • Capture LiDAR point cloud data 16x faster than terrestrial scanning
  • Activate robots and sensors from anywhere to investigate issues
  • Generate reports on data center build progress for stakeholders
  • Tag and assign issues to subcontractors with geolocation information

How Turner cut inspection times by 95%

Turner recently decided to add DroneDeploy’s Robotics to its arsenal of tools for building large-scale projects. It’s now using Spot for autonomous 360 data capture, 2D/static directional imagery and LiDAR scanning missions. This has cut construction site inspection times by 95%, from several hours to just 15 minutes.

Robotic automation is transforming construction

Construction companies face unique challenges when building large construction projects, like data centers, due to their scale and complexity. Robots will be an increasingly important tool on these projects – helping to track progress, provide visual evidence of completed work, improve quality control and reduce rework on even the largest and most complex builds.
