RoadPrintz debuts its robotic arm to paint crosswalks in Public Square
Cleveland Scene: Wyatt Newman, professor at Case School of Engineering, discussed how RoadPrintz— the Cleveland-based startup he co-founded—used a robotic painting system called Electra to paint streets. He said he hopes it’ll eventually help prevent serious injuries and deaths from workers being hit on roads. “The more that we can do well-designed [street painting], the safer all of the street users will be,” Newman said. “So if we can make it cheaper, easier [and] safer to put that down, then we can make it generally safer for the public.”
