SUMMARY:Drone inspection of difficult to reach facilities with the possibility of generating a 3D Model for a better damage analysis
DESCRIPTION:Drones are more and more involved in taking professional video footage of all kinds. Previous generations however had only a minor role in inspecting high temperature, dust loaded or dark facilities due to technical difficulties. In recent years improvements on lighting  and camera systems have led to better visibility in dust loaded and dark rooms and newer Li-Ion technologies have led to longer flight duration. Flight stabilisation via route vectoring and internal sensors make it possible to have a smooth operation.  With a cage housing drones are even possible to operate in small spaces without risk of colliding. This altogether widened the field of possible facilities to be inspected to e.g. cowpers, blast furnaces, and all sorts of second heat furnaces and flues and made drone inspections a reliable source for imaging with the option to have the data available even after years. Software aided analysis of the video footage can be completed with a full 3D Model and thus gives a good overview of the actual damage of the scene, or possible spots for preventive maintenance. With health and safety issues being a foremost important point in all companies worldwide, an operator that has not to undergo risks of going directly into the production facilities another point in favour to using drones is made. Also time consuming construction of scaffolding or the use of cranes is not necessary.
