As an important industrial carrier of the low-altitude economy, industrial unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) play a significant role in the daily work of various industries with their unique advantages. So, what are the main application fields of industrial drones?
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) exploration and mapping refers to a comprehensive technology that uses UAVs as carrying platforms, equipped with sensors and positioning systems, to obtain ground information through remote sensing technology, and then process, analyze and apply it. It has the advantages of high efficiency, flexibility, rapidity and low cost, and can quickly obtain high-precision and large-scale geographic information data, providing important data support for survey and design.
1. Regional dynamic monitoring
Use drones to regularly photograph the target area or place to form dynamic monitoring. For instance, drones can be used to monitor the safety of construction site operations, which can effectively monitor whether the workers are wearing safety helmets as required and eliminate potential risks and hazards.
2. Monitoring of land and resources
Drones, equipped with high-precision GPS receivers and pan-tilt cameras, can obtain terrain data in real time, complete terrain measurement tasks more efficiently, and improve the efficiency of data collection. At the same time, it is also possible to implement monitoring of geological disasters, transmit data to the ground for analysis, predict the occurrence probability of geological disasters, and provide a scientific basis for disaster prevention and control.
3. Engineering exploration
By detecting and analyzing specific substances on the surface or underground, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) build high-precision two-dimensional and three-dimensional models to obtain information on surface morphology changes, geological structures, mineral landforms, etc., providing accurate data support for the planning of engineering construction.
The application of unmanned aerial vehicles in energy infrastructure is extensive. They can quickly capture potential problems in energy infrastructure, making the maintenance of energy infrastructure more timely and helping to prevent potential security risks.
1. Grid inspection
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) power grid inspection is an efficient and safe method for inspecting power grid facilities and the environment. By using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with devices, visible light inspection, infrared inspection and Lidar inspection of power grid lines and equipment are carried out, providing guarantees for the safety and reliability of the power system.
2. New energy vehicle inspection
Drones rapidly fly over new energy facilities such as wind farms and solar power stations. By carrying equipment, they take photos and monitor key areas. Combined with an AI intelligent recognition system, they quickly analyze the inspection images, promptly identify equipment malfunctions and abnormalities, and generate reports.
3. Pipeline inspection
Drones can fly autonomously along preset routes, providing all-round and thorough coverage of oil and gas pipelines without any blind spots, ensuring the completeness and accuracy of the inspection. It not only reduces the safety risks of inspection personnel, but also improves the inspection efficiency.
Drones play multiple roles in logistics transportation, including improving transportation efficiency and speed, reducing logistics costs, enhancing flexibility, environmental protection and energy conservation, as well as technological innovation and intelligence.
1. Material distribution
Drones have a significant speed advantage in emergency material distribution and can deliver materials to the designated locations quickly and conveniently. For instance, after a disaster occurs, drones can quickly deliver relief supplies such as food and medicine to the disaster-stricken areas.
2. Express logistics
In the express logistics industry, drones can directly deliver goods from warehouses to customers. In Shenzhen, drone delivery of food has become a common sight. So far, it has covered five business districts in Shenzhen and reached 18 communities and office buildings through 11 routes. Compared with traditional delivery, it has improved efficiency by nearly 40%, saving users a lot of waiting time
