The upcoming 140,000 sq. ft., four-story University of Michigan-Ford Robotics Building was designed by HED with three objectives in mind: flexibility, collaboration and innovation. The futuristic structure will house a three-story fly zone for autonomous aerial vehicles, an outdoor obstacle course for walking robots and a high-bay garage space for self-driving cars. That much innovation needs energy-efficiency. Guardian is pleased to provide SunGuard® SNR 43, IS 20 and SN 68 solar control glass to reduce energy costs.
