About the project

Unmanned systems for inspecting pipelines, industrial structures and hard-to-access facilities, capturing imaging and measurement data for asset monitoring.

Challenge and proposed solution

Challenge: reduce inspection effort and improve infrastructure coverage.

Solution: integrate an unmanned vehicle, sensing payload and analytics.

Next: select pilot assets, review safety requirements and conduct field tests.
