Page last modified
April 11 2024

100% and fully operable in onshore and offshore areas/environment with inspection of all kinds of primarily vertical standing industrial objects, but with BIG focus on wind turbines. Fully automated flights with a very robust and wind-stable helicopter drone. Digital analysis, qualification, and classification of given data for anomalies or defects with normal and infrared images. Support of artificial intelligence for easier detection of findings. Automated reporting system in pdf or in conjunction with an interface to the customers ERP-System. All developments (hard- and software) are done in-house, so we can easily react to customers' (special) needs.

We are a team of specialized technicians. Our team covers fields of aviation technology, mechatronics, and IT. With a high commitment that is typical for start-ups, we have come together in 2015. Through the use of a ‘disrupting technology’, we create a simple and efficient solution for the inspection of vertical objects, in particular wind turbines. Today we are able to connect image data from external hardware to our in-house software. Thus we can expand our customer base constantly. Additionally, we work together with partners in our own cooperation programs.
