Project Details
Description
The overarching aim of the D4S project is to develop a system of autonomous, self-charging, and collaborative drones that can inspect a big portion of transportation infrastructures in a continuous operation. The proposed solution harvests energy from overhead power or rail lines in the proximity of the desired infrastructure
to be inspected to operate its drones for a longer time. The project gets information about the applicable transport infrastructure to be inspected from open maps and satellite data and forwards that information to its drones to conduct their autonomous mission.
