Insight
Voltin, a recipient of the Queensland Government’s Ignite Ideas Grant, is set to unveil its new Autonomous Building Assessment tool, AutoBAT 3.0, at the Sydney Build conference on 6th and 7th March 2023. The company claims that the upgraded building defect detection device offers greater accuracy and cost-effectiveness compared to other market solutions.
Launched in late 2020, Voltin uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) to identify defects in multi-storey commercial and residential towers, providing early and accurate data on structural and maintenance issues. The new AutoBAT 3.0 features an improved software control system, higher resolution cameras, and sensors in a more compact and versatile design.
The Voltin system analyses concrete, glass, metal, and other surface compounds to identify defects and prioritize repairs, providing building owners and property managers with important information on the state of their assets in a safe manner. It offers a significant advantage for building owners and property managers as it provides a clear picture of the state of a building.
The company’s director, Stephen Thornton, stated that the technology simplifies the assessment and reporting of defects and reduces risk for investors and asset managers, as well as improving safety outcomes for tenants.
AutoBAT 2.0 has already been used in around 20 high-rise and multi-storey building inspections in Queensland, and the company has received interest from international clients. Voltin anticipates licensing agreements and initial sales throughout the Asia-Pacific region, the United States, Europe, and South America. The device can be deployed vertically, ensuring an inspection can occur without breaching air safety regulations or requiring physical inspections in risky conditions.
The AutoBAT solves the problem of traditional facade assessments that require inspectors to climb ladders or scaffolding and manually review a building exterior, as well as the limitations of drone technology in controlled airspace areas and populated sites in most CBD areas.
