Artificial Intelligence based Inspection and monitoring of Electrical Transmission and Distribution Assets
Monitoring utility assets are costly and dangerous. Traditionally, helicopters are used to inspect both towers and power lines, risking the helicopter’s rotor blade striking a wire and causing catastrophic damage and often fatalities. AI-Drone with Cloud processing can help decrease time, reduce risk to workers and increase reliability while reducing cost
Pre-Fault detection and prevention by AI
Asset inspection (CVI)
Routine and fault inspections
Monitor Vegetation & reduce Forest Fire
Survey Potential Sites
Track Progress of Ongoing Projects
Comprehensive AI-Drone with Cloud processing
We have built cloud based AI processing backend. As a result AI-Drone provides enterprise-grade aerial surveillance and intelligence without maintaining expensive on premise AI infrastructure. It provides automated pre-fault detection and easy-to-follow action items.
How it Works
Collect
AI guided unmanned and semi-unmanned drons collect thermal and visual images of assets. Send directly to the AI agents on the Cloud
Cloud Process
AI agents on Cloud automatically process the images and deep learning algorithms detects issues and failure predictions.
Alerts and Actions
Reports are generated with detected potential issues and failure predictions. Alarts are sent. Saved history and charts provides invaluable insights and system health.
Why AI-Drone
01. Reduced Inspection and Patrol Costs
Avoiding use of manned helicopters, vehicle patrols and foot patrols to inspect lines and surrounding vegetation reduces costs and improves safety
02. Improve Electric System Reliability
UAV inspections improve the ability to proactively locate faults, trips, hazardous trees and non-standard conditions to prevent failures.
03. Improve the Safety of Utility Workers
Reduce utility employee exposure to hazardous terrain, operating manned aircraft, working at heights and exposure to high voltage assets.
04. Cloud based Unmanned Aerial Systems
Supports Cloud and on premise AI backend infrastructure. Cloud provides AI without maintaining expensive infrastructure whereas on-premise provides backup.
05. Customizable GIS and Data Deliverables
Our UAV team will collaborate with your electric network to determine what data needs to be obtained and how to best report that data back to the utility
06. Innovation in Aerial Inspection
ULC’s unmanned aerial inspection program is backed by our utility research and development, and field operations teams as well a team of expert UAS consultants.
