Achieving precision is a must in ultrasonic inspections, but it's not always straightforward due to some challenges like interference and noise. These issues can arise from various sources, including surface rust and environmental dust. To address these challenges, there's an exciting development on the horizon: the introduction of ultrasonic testing (UT) UAVs, often referred to as UT drones or UT flying robots.

RAVEN, a bird-inspired robot, brings a breakthrough in drone technology with its ability to walk, hop, and leap into flight. Mimicking the leg-powered takeoff of birds, RAVEN eliminates the need for runways, making it ideal for disaster relief and remote operations. Developed by EPFL researchers, this lightweight marvel combines motor-powered joints and spring-loaded feet to achieve bird-like agility. While perfecting safe landings remains a challenge, RAVEN could redefine the future of fixed-wing drones. https://lnkd.in/gfk2vsS4 #VXDynamic #RAVENRobot #DroneInnovation #BioInspiredTech #FlyingRobot #Robotics #EPFL #AviationRevolution

This flying robot can move in any direction. We visited Voliro and got an up-close look at their drone, which is helping asset managers save significant time and money. The Voliro T is fully omnidirectional, capable of moving in any direction and interacting with surfaces from various angle at height. Designed for Non-Destructive Testing, this drone is transforming industrial inspections. In some cases, the drone is saving asset owners weeks compared to traditional inspection methods, all while eliminating the need to send workers into hazardous environments. #drones #robotics #oilandgas

I've been immersed in the world of drone piloting for over five years now, but delving into FPV drones has introduced me to a whole new dimension. Upon taking flight with them, I quickly realized that this is a path worth exploring further.

Will drone swarms take over last mile delivery? 📦 Researchers from University of California, Berkeley's high performance robotics on working on it. Using advanced control theory and a step-by-step control strategy, the team coordinate multiple drones for transporting payloads. The drones are connected to the payload, making the entire system act like a larger flying object with "thrust modules" where the drones are attached. The team's study has determined the best arrangement of these thrust modules around the payload to ensure the system remains stable and handles disturbances well ✅ #drones #robotics #logistics

A #screenshot of where we are flying drones right now. 🚀 Amazing feeling to have such a great team and that we can inspect power lines at this scale.
