A robotic system known as DamBot™ operates near closure gates at Blue Mountain Dam, Arkansas in October 2020. Dambot™ takes the human element out of a dangerous but necessary U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) maintenance task. The cutting-edge technology has been successfully tested and stands poised to change the course of closure gate assessments, while also safeguarding USACE team members.
