Aerones
Aerones combines fully autonomous drone inspection (single-button autopilot, 100 megapixel imaging, one turbine inspected in under 30 minutes) with AI damage detection models that automatically classify and locate blade anomalies. Crawler robots for internal blade inspection, cleaning, leading-edge repair, and ice-phobic coating are operated remotely via ground-control, while AI/ML algorithms process inspection data for predictive maintenance recommendations delivered through the Visual Inspection Studio cloud platform. The autonomous drone service launched March 2024 requires zero technician repositioning of blades.
