Inspecting indoor and hard-to-reach environments has always been a major challenge for various industries, such as oil & gas, mining, infrastructure, energy, and many others. The need to minimize risks, reduce costs, and optimize processes has made technology play a crucial role in this sector.
The Elios 3, developed by Flyability, represents an innovative leap in industrial inspection. It is the first indoor mapping and inspection drone that combines unmatched intelligence, stability, and versatility. With cutting-edge technology and a robust design, it revolutionizes the market and becomes essential for any company looking to transform its operations.
Discover the five key features that make Elios 3 the best indoor inspection drone available.
1. FlyAware™ SLAM Engine – Precise Mapping and Navigation
FlyAware™ is Flyability’s exclusive technology that combines computer vision, LiDAR sensors, and a next-generation Nvidia graphics engine. This system acts as an internal GPS with centimeter-level precision, allowing the drone to create real-time 3D maps and instantly understand its surroundings.
With this technology, Elios 3 can autonomously navigate complex spaces, reducing piloting errors and ensuring that every corner is inspected with maximum accuracy. This innovation represents a major leap forward in safety and efficiency for inspections.
2. SLAM-Based Stabilization – Precise and Reliable Flight
Flight stability is crucial for high-quality inspections. Elios 3 features an advanced SLAM-based stabilization system (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), which automatically detects and compensates for even the slightest unexpected drone movements.
This technology allows Elios 3 to “hover” in the air with incredible stability, regardless of environmental conditions. As a result, even inexperienced pilots can carry out complex missions without requiring extensive training.
3. Live 3D Mapping – Total Situational Awareness
Elios 3 is equipped with a LiDAR sensor that continuously scans the environment and generates a detailed real-time 3D map. This map is displayed in the Cockpit App, providing the operator with a clear and precise view of the drone’s position and the space around it.
In addition to enabling safer and more efficient flights, this feature allows for real-time tracking of inspection coverage, ensuring that no area is overlooked. This significantly improves data accuracy and reliability.
4. Robust and Collision-Resistant Design
Elios 3 is designed to operate in the most challenging industrial environments. Its structure includes an exclusive protective cage and reversible motors, allowing the drone to recover from impacts without compromising the mission.
Additionally, the drone’s design follows the IP-44 standard, ensuring resistance to dust and water splashes. This makes Elios 3 ideal for harsh environments, such as underground mines, pipelines, and industrial tanks.
5. Modularity and Expansion – Future-Proof
One of Elios 3’s greatest advantages is its versatility. It features a modular compartment that allows for the installation of various sensors, such as radiation meters, gas detectors, and other specialized devices for different industrial applications.
Thanks to this feature, Elios 3 is a future-proof solution, always ready to adapt to new industry demands while offering maximum performance and precision in any scenario.
Elios 3 is more than just an inspection drone – it is a key ally in the digital transformation of industries. Its innovative technology, impressive stability, and rugged design make it the best choice for companies seeking efficiency, safety, and cost reduction in their operations.
If you want to take your industrial inspections to the next level, Elios 3 is the ultimate solution.
