Co-founders of leading autonomous drone inspection solution share industry insights at Blades Europe and Onyx Insight Technical Symposium
Oct. 28, 2022 – Nearthlab, an autonomous drone inspection solution, participated as a keynote speaker at the following conferences.
- Blades Europe
- Onyx Insight Technical Symposium
Namely, Chief Executive Officer Jay Choi made his way over to Germany to take a deep dive into the future of autonomous inspections at Blades Europe, while Chief Technology Officer Youngsuk Chung stayed behind to share the role deep learning and automation play in minimizing downtime.
Though slightly varied in length and detail, both presentations kicked off with a rundown on the technological legwork that must be taken care of to prevent defects to the blades and, ultimately, the entire turbine. From there, relevant case studies were introduced and analyzed to showcase how convenient, thorough, and fast inspections can be with the right solutions.
“The future of autonomous inspection hinges heavily on how well service providers integrate ad hoc inspections and predictive analytics into the mix,” said co-founder and CTO Youngsuk Chung. “I went in there hoping to show site managers and fellow peers in the industry the ropes on laying out the groundwork for that very future.”
“It seems though that an end-to-end solution is seen almost as this far-fetched concept of distant future,” said co-founder and CEO Jay Choi. “But that’s actually a far cry from reality. With all that Nearthlab is doing to empower operators to conduct standalone inspections on the go and fend off potential defects with predictive maintenance, I believe yesterday’s session was a testament to the fact that what we envision as the future is already at our doorsteps.”
