Aerial Work Automation

The most common customer requests fall within the field of aerial mapping and 3D modeling. Here we use high endurance flight platforms and state-of-the-art optical devices to maximize scanning efficiency and the quality of delivered results for our customers. The scanning plan is processed for the object or area of interest. The resulting image material is further processed into maps or 3D models with authentic texture. All outputs can be georeferenced (aligned in the global coordinate system) or subjected to further processing and data mining.

The Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) methods are applied in the framework of aerial work for industrial subjects. In this field, we are able to provide our customers with, at least, separate flights for specific engagements that are realized in the team of our pilot and customer inspection professional. Such a team then performs remotely piloted scanning of the object with a camera where our company guarantees flight safety and all preparations, and the inspector provides navigation based on his expert knowledge to acquire the relevant data.

Even in this area, our company aims to automate processes and maximize efficiency of data acquisition, and we also offer advanced methods for our customers to obtain a 3D model or, using robust repeatability of the inspection flight, a time-lapse data set that documents the development of the inspected object.

In addition to remote sensing using standard sensors, we are also able to offer our customers specialized sensor sensing. Among the most common are thermography and laser scanning using LIDAR. Such results can be combined to achieve very specific results that fit perfectly into the customer requirements. The most common application areas for thermography are thermal leakage of buildings and inspection of industrial sites and production processes. Laser scanning on the other hand can help in forestry and surface mining to evaluate and determine time changes with high precision.

The same is true with the development of legal constraints on unmanned vehicles. Our dedicated employees participate directly in the development of the legislative framework within the interest groups. As a result, we are able to provide advice on how to legally operate your facility, provide support for regulatory authorities, as well as process future development studies in relation to your intentions.

Thanks to excellent knowledge of existing devices, we offer unmanned platforms tailored to our specific requirements for our customers. We carry out the development and testing of sensor platform prototype equipment for special purposes and their integration with the chosen unmanned platform. We also deliver software for the processing of measured data on an airplane or off-line mode on the ground.

If your task is highly innovative or you only want to increase the efficiency of your tasks, we can design specific trajectory planning algorithms for you. Since the founding of our company, we have been associating experts in the autonomous planning of aerial missions. We deliver a solution for complex systems where more than one AUV is flying in the same airspace. We also advise you on planning in complicated environments with lots of obstacles and other restrictions. Of course, the emphasis on optimal and efficient flight trajectories remains with your resources. Whether it's minimizing operator time, failing data, or rationalizing traffic.
