At Jack Spinks-Marino Casem Stadium in Alcorn State, Mississippi, Lucid Bots deployed its new sealing module integrated with the Sherpa drone, transforming the way concrete is protected in large-scale structures.
This drone, equipped with an aerial siloxane application system, sealed the stadium’s facade in record time, reducing operating costs by 80% compared to traditional methods involving scaffolding or scaffolding or lifting platforms .
New waterproofing standard with Sherpa drone
The project, carried out in collaboration with the contractor FlyByShine and using the hydrophobic sealant WByShine Siloxane Concentrate Siloxane Concentrate WB Prosoco’s WB Siloxane Concentrate hydrophobic sealant, highlighted the Sherpa’s efficiency. The device covered surfaces at a rate of more than 200 square feet per minute, without exposing workers to hazardous heights.
This technology allows contractors to complete jobs that used to take days in just hours, thanks to a modular design that integrates pump, hose, regulators and intuitive software. In addition, the drone adapts to different structural geometries and wind conditions, improving the consistency of the finish.
Embedded AI and operational autonomy
Lucid Bots’ recent acquisition of Avianna has boosted the capabilities of Avianna’s Sherpa Sherpa drone drone, incorporating embedded artificial intelligence that allows it to interpret voice or chat commands. This reduces the need for specialized technical operators and streamlines field operations.
From its headquarters in North Carolina, Lucid Bots continues to expand its vision of automating dangerous and repetitive tasks in the maintenance and construction industry. maintenance and construction . More than 500 Sherpa units are already operating in different sectors across the country, from cleaning to surface coating.

Opinions of the sector
Representatives from Prosoco and FlyByShine agreed that the solution is not only faster, but also improves the safety and quality of the application.
Before anyone put up scaffolding, we were done.
Ric McCluskey, owner of FlyByShine, commented.
The drone eliminates overhead work and provides faster results with a uniform finish that meets the manufacturer’s standards.
Added Prosoco’s Bill Daniel.
Market outlook and future expansion
Lucid Bots is already preparing the beta launch of its complete sealing kit, aimed at contractors interested in increasing efficiency without compromising safety. This breakthrough aims to conquer a relevant portion of the market for facade maintenance, waterproofing and protection of exterior surfaces.
With this step, the company reaffirms its commitment to the technological transformation of the sector, positioning drones as strategic allies in infrastructure conservation.
