But it doesn’t. So many things can go wrong, there are many areas where GPS is blocked, not to mention GPS can be spoofed, and what happens if you need to check UNDERand bridge ?
Do I really need to have an operator just to backup GPS failure?
Introducing Autonomous Vision-Based Navigation
Abundant real-time information
Highly suitable for dynamic environments
positioning that improves linearly with proximity
Autonomous Operation
Vision based navigation using the drones on-board camera allows for fully autonomous operation
Does't depend on GPS
Not dependent on GPS or any other RF signaling.
Anywhere you need anytime you want
Fully autonomous operation day to night, indoor or outdoor.
Repeatable Operations
Each mission can cover the very same regions of interest and provide the same views as previous scans.
Proximity improves positioning
We can determine the drone's exact position as well as the direction of gaze.
Accurate 6 degrees of freedom (DoF)
Position accuracy improves as the drone gets closer to the inspected surface. At 1 meter the position accuracy is 2.5 cm.
