Monitoring
Tunnel construction
We achieve personnel reduction and increase efficiency in tunnel construction through autonomous drone flight under non-GPS environments which is safe, easy and low-cost.
By connecting existing sensors to data analysis applications, the drone will reliably carry the sensors and cameras.
It is possible to reduce the number of regular patrols, use resources efficiently and accumulate data without oversight.
Problems
- Inspection and monitoring requires a large number of personnel and time
- As the inspection target is large, it consumes time and effort
- Existing drones are not easy to use because of size and weight.
- It is difficult to secure drone pilots.
Solutions
- Flight route instructions by markers.
- Fully autonomous flight drone system including charging and acquisition data transmission.
- Fail-safe features customized for the environment
- Flexible support for expanding inspection range
- Small drones are available
Benefit
- Improving on-site personnel efficiency
- Expanded use of cameras and sensors
- Collect images and data over time easily, reliably and safely.
By inspection and monitoring by drone automatic flight, it is possible to check the site in the control room without regular patrols by staff.
- Use a small airframe
- Marker guided automatic flight
- Maximum flight time 16 minutes
- Safer flights with fail-safe function
- Equipped with automatic charging function
- Equipped with obstacle detection function
- Automatic video recording, photographing and transmission
- Application software for checking the flight status and marker position

Progress management
Building construction
We achieve chronological records of building site through autonomous drone flight, which is safe, easy and low-cost, under non-GPS environment.
The drone automatically flies overhead in outside working hours which is a free space on the site. It enables the drone to record site conditions without oversight, eliminating blind spots and reducing the man-hours and work at the site.
Problems
- Blind spots increase as construction progresses
- It is difficult to make regular recording and shooting on-site
- It is difficult to use mobile robots because of debris, material and equipment on the ground
Solutions
- Flight route are guided by markers
- Fully autonomous flight drone system including charging and acquisition of data transmission
- Fail-safe features customized for every environment
- Easy design and modification of flight path and flexible response time to changes during in-flight environments
- Using smaller drones increases clearance of door frames
Benefit
- Acquisition of a drone system that adapt to the changing sites.
- Collect images and data over time easily, reliably and safely.
- Acquisition of data with BIM collaboration
Regular drone patrols make it possible to take pictures over time without oversight. It is possible to check and be in visual contact with the site without in person visit by the manager.
- Use a small airframe
- Marker guided autonomous flight
- Maximum flight time of 16 minutes
- Safe flights with fail-safe function
- Equipped with automatic charging function
- Equipped with obstacle detection
- Software for checking the flight status and marker position
- Photographing and storage
