Safer - better - greener!

Traditional powerline inspections with manned helicopters are hazardous and fuel-intensive. While drones offer a safer alternative, manually controlling cameras remotely over long distances and at high speeds presents a significant challenge.

Bergen Robotics has developed an AI-driven robotic camera system that autonomously locates and captures detailed images of specific components on the pylons.

Our game-changing technology revolutionizes remote powerline inspections. Our system leverages the Sony ILX-LR1's 61MP sensor, delivering exceptional image quality in a lightweight and streamlined package.

Users can define which of the components should be tracked and photographed, though this depends on which component types the component-detection network is trained on.
The payload can also be fitted to unmanned helicopters as well as multicopters.

The process of capturing images is performed fully autonomously by the system and detailed meta-data (position, direction, speed, etc.) is logged and can be applied to these images post-mission.
