Stratford, ON captures the current state of city sidewalks with an inspection robot

Stratford, ON Inspection Robot State of City Sidewalks

Stratford replaced manual inspections by city workers with a robot-led audit for 2021. Top Hat Robotics supplied an all-electric robot and operators for the two-week pilot. The robot uses depth cameras to capture sidewalk flaws to within one millimeter of accuracy. Footage was connected to a master map for targeted repairs and year-to-year sidewalk condition assessments. This pilot saved considerable personnel time spent in the past on months-long annual inspections.
