Drones for Bridge Safety Inspection: Essential Performance Requirements

Oct 24, 2025

Drones for bridge safety inspection need 30-60min endurance, 500 m-10 km range, and IP45-IP54 resilience for harsh conditions. High-res cameras (≥20MP, 40x zoom), thermal imaging, and LIDAR detect cracks and corrosion. Secure communication, AI, and BVLOS autonomy ensure precise, safe inspections, reducing risks and downtime, as seen in rail bridge patrols. Read More
