Harvesting energy from overhead power or rail lines in the proximity of the infrastructure to be inspected to operate the drones for a longer time.
Inspection efficiency
Improving an Al algorithms to recognize infrastructure components and discover automatically eventual faults on assets.
Failsafe Inspection
Producing a safe operational system resisting harsh electromagnetic environments and the effects of high-voltage/ high-current signals.
Collaborative system
Validating a collaborative and centralized drone system to inspect different sides of the desired infrastructure.
Autonomous Navigation
Providing a drone system monitoring and controlling remotely the state and location of the drone.
consortium
The consortium represents the full value-chain for the development of an autonomous, self-charging, collaborative drone system for inspecting transport infrastructures.
The project is also supported by a team of professional having knowledge and expertise in UAS, AI, railway and bridge inspections. Visit the Advisory Board page for more information.
