Thermal Imaging Drones


Thermal imaging remains a highly specialized application within the professional drone services industry.

It is a method of producing significantly enhanced details of objects in low visibility environments by detecting the object’s infrared radiation and thermal energy to create images based on the information gathered.

Drone thermal imaging cameras can be used in a variety of applications and as the technology has developed over the years, we see its use across a variety of sectors, such as Agriculture, Oil and Gas, Search and Rescue, Firefighting, Roof and Building Inspections, Solar Panel Installation Maintenance and many more.

Solar Panels Inspections

Solar panel installations are becoming increasingly popular because of the decrease in installation costs and a price rise in non-renewable energy sources such as coal, oil and gas. However solar panels require regular maintenance. Using thermal imaging for solar panel inspections a drone can identify manufacturing defects, cracks, faulty inter-connectors and temporary shadowing.

Roof and Building Inspections

Drone thermal imaging is very effective when inspecting roofs and building exteriors. The drone can view the entire roof or building and quickly identify leaks, detect energy inefficiencies, which helps to maintain temperature regulations in a building. The thermal drone can also analyse the building structure to spot missing or damaged installations, water under roof membranes, external electrical issues, failed windows, and many other faults.

Watch the video below to see the image transition between a standard drone camera vs a thermal imaging camera, when inspecting a roof.

Overall the most beneficial aspect of a thermal imaging drone is its ability to detect heat loss and faults that cannot be easily identified by the naked eye!

Underwater Drones are transforming marine science

  The vast and mysterious underwater world has always fascinated scientists and explorers alike. From vibrant coral reefs to the dark, unexplored trenches of the ocean, understanding these environments is crucial not only for marine biology but also for monitoring the health of our planet. Recently, scientists and researchers have been employing a revolutionary tool underwater drones to study marine life, monitor environmental changes, and explore underwater ecosystems with unprecedented detail. Studying Marine Life in Their Natural Habitat Traditional methods of studying marine life often involved direct human observation through diving or the deployment of stationary cameras, which can be limited by depth, time, or visibility. Underwater drones change this dynamic by enabling: Detailed behaviour analysis: High-resolution cameras capture real-time footage of marine creatures, revealing hunting, mating, and social behaviours. Tracking elusive species: Wit...

Exploring the Depths: The Advent of Underwater Drones

  The vast and mysterious realm of the ocean has always captivated human imagination. From the beautiful coral reefs teeming with life to the dark, uncharted depths where sunlight cannot penetrate, the underwater world holds countless secrets waiting to be unravelled. In the not-so-distant past, the only way to explore these depths was through manned submarines and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), but now, a new player has entered the scene: underwater drones. The Rise of Underwater Drones Just as aerial drones revolutionized the way we gather information and conduct surveillance from the skies, underwater drones have opened up a whole new frontier of exploration and research beneath the ocean's surface. These remotely operated submersibles are equipped with cameras, sensors, and sometimes even manipulator arms, allowing them to capture stunning imagery, collect data, and even perform tasks in otherwise inaccessible underwater environments. Applications and Uses The poten...

Oil and Gas industry is embracing underwater drones

  The oil and gas industry has always been at the forefront of adopting cutting edge technologies to improve efficiency, safety, and environmental stewardship. One of the most promising advancements in recent years is the integration of underwater drones also known as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) or autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) into offshore operations. These high-tech machines are transforming how companies inspect offshore infrastructure, survey pipelines, and conduct underwater maintenance and repairs. The Challenges of Offshore Operations Operating in offshore environments presents unique challenges. Harsh weather conditions, deep and often murky waters, and the sheer scale of underwater infrastructure make inspections and maintenance complex, costly, and sometimes hazardous for human divers. Traditionally, underwater inspections relied on divers or tethered ROVs, which come with limitations such as depth restrictions, limited operational time, safety risks,...
