Our Robotic Laser Technology

Programs such as Google Earth and Zillow became great sidekick tools in this project. This job came to us in the form of a single 2D drawing with an address. 

The drawing was slightly off scale so we started by improvising a trip to the site with old school methods of architectural scales. Since we hadn’t physically been to the site for a routine survey, we had to become a little more resourceful by grabbing measurements and helpful visuals from both Google Earth and Zillow.com

Based off the drawing and information we had gathered, we started crafting a 3D model of the plan. For most of RediPour’s projects, we incorporate the use of robotic laser technology to assure accuracy of the project. The topographical slope was a key component in determining wall heights for this project and our engineers at RediPour are all about accuracy. 

With the information gathered from our robot, we are able to implement the site directly into our 3D modeling software, Revit. This software is extremely innovative, and in projects such as these, we have the advantage of displaying several eye catching aspects such as the fire place, shallow fountain pool, and lighting fixtures. Watch this short video of the project to see some of these attributes.
