Improving the Energy Efficiency of Buildings with Drones
Claimed
Developed out of NYU’s Tandon School of Engineering, Building Diagnostic Robotics (BDR) created robotics tools and AI analytics to aid in assessing building envelope efficiency.
Called EASEEbot, the tools include a UAV (drone) that can take video, thermal, and LiDAR imaging of a building exterior and a robot that scans roofs utilizing Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR).
