Robotics, AI, drones, and data analytics are shaping the future of the construction industry

Atlas, CU Denver's robotic dog, trotted in a crawlspace of the Anythink Nature Library construction site in Thornton last month, lights blinking as it maneuvered through tight, dark passageways. Back at the entrance, university engineering Associate Professor Moatassem Abdallah and seven students watched Atlas's live feed, discussing how its 360° video and data could inform the project's next steps.
