Robot management system that manages wind turbine blades – Attracted $1.6 million investment

Industrial heavy lifting drones - Drones Coating and Deicing of Wind Turbines

A ground-based robot that performs maintenance tasks such as laser scanning, cleaning, and protective coating of blades on behalf of workers who have safety concerns and work environment restrictions.

Initial model (drone) model change to ground-based robot after trial and error. It can be installed and disassembled in one hour, so two workers can manage multiple turbines a day.
