Revolutionizing Inspections Across Industries
The Scout 137 Drone System is a specialized solution for indoor inspections in industrial environments, particularly suited for GPS-denied, hazardous areas with low or no light, where human entry might be unsafe or impossible.
Often flying in GPS-denied environments, the Scout 137 has an onboard 3D LiDAR in stead of a GPS. The LiDAR serves as the perfect data source for the drone’s indoor positioning while also providing a useful visual support to the drone operator.
Industries
Marine
Vessel surveys and inspections are a critical part of maintaining efficient modern global trade and prevent harm to people and the environment.
Oil & Gas
The culture of Oil & Gas is based on safety first and this is woven into the DNA of the industry.
Infrastructure
Our industrial society depends not just on the development of new infrastructure, but also the inspection and maintenance of existing assets.
