Building Diagnostic Robotics (BDR) builds autonomous robots and AI that see beneath the surface of the built world.
Almost everything that fails in our infrastructure fails out of sight first. A roof, a wall, or a runway looks fine right up until it leaks, cracks, or closes. The tools that can catch this early, ground-penetrating radar, thermal imaging, LiDAR, have existed for decades, but they have stayed slow, manual, and expensive to interpret. BDR puts those sensors on autonomous robots and uses AI to turn what they see into something people can act on: what is wrong, where it is, and what it will cost to fix.
The company's first product, Roofus, has been scanning commercial roofs across New York City since 2024, under contract with roofing companies and generating revenue in a market where roof failures drive $31 billion a year in insurance claims.
BDR is a team of engineers out of NYU's robotics and AI programs, building at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Roofs are the starting point. The same sensor and autonomy stack reads any built surface, and the company is developing its next applications beyond the roofline, including airfield pavement.
Come watch Roofus scan a roof live, meet the team, and ask what is underneath the buildings you own, insure, or repair.

Xsens is a leading innovator in 3D motion tracking, leveraging proprietary MEMS inertial sensor technology and advanced multi-sensor data fusion algorithms to digitize physical movement with exceptional precision. For human motion capture, the company provides wireless, wearable sensor suits and software that deliver production-ready, highly accurate kinematic data for characters in entertainment, biomechanical research in health and sports, and physical training data for humanoid robotics without the line-of-sight constraints of traditional camera-based setups. Simultaneously, Xsens engineers industrial-grade, low-power, and rugged inertial sensor modules—including IMUs, AHRS, and GNSS/INS systems—that act as the critical "inner ear" for autonomous machines. These factory-calibrated, vibration-resistant sensors provide high-frequency, low-latency 3D orientation, stabilization, and positioning data essential for navigation and real-time balance control in advanced robotics, UAVs, humanoids, and marine ROVs operating in complex, challenging environments.
Yaskawa's mission is to efficiently deliver high quality, innovative robotic solutions that help our customers and partners to be competitive globally, and to provide the highest level of customer satisfaction in the automation industry.
