Description
UV EYEs can be mounted either on a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) system or fixed directly to inspection vehicles that patrol transmission and distribution lines. These vehicles are often purpose-built or retrofitted specifically for utility inspection tasks, allowing for continuous and systematic scanning of overhead infrastructure.
This setup is highly efficient for utilities, enabling large sections of the grid to be inspected quickly. The system can operate as a standalone UV inspection tool or be integrated with thermal and RGB sensors, creating a powerful multi-sensor platform. This combination enhances detection accuracy, improves fault classification, and accelerates decision-making.
Vehicle-mounted inspections are particularly well-suited for routine patrols, emergency response after storms, and verification of asset condition in remote or difficult-to-access areas, saving time, reducing operational risk, and supporting more effective maintenance planning.
