Use of multiple low cost autonomous drones for high voltage line inspection

• Many high-voltage line monitoring companies have been using drones to carry out preventive inspection. The inspection procedure usually makes use of pilots that control drones which films the transmission lines. Afterwards, the images need to be analyzed in order to detect problems. This work proposes the usage of drones that make autonomous flights to perform the inspection. The proposed approach exploits three drones to inspect each important part of a transmission line, with the first inspecting the wires, the second inspecting the towers and the third checking the safety area under the line. All three drones are controlled by an embedded system with artificial intelligence which is able to identify a potential problem and issue an alert to locations that might present issues. © 2022 ICAS.
