Stopes are an essential part of underground mines and are often dangerous areas that require regular inspections due to the removal of ore and the potential for lose material to fall during operations.
Flyability's Elios 3 drone is the perfect solution for this.
Inspecting a stope with Elios 3 couldn't be easier. Thanks to Elios 3's intuitive controls and stability the pilot can focus more on capturing quality data, including creating a digital twin of the stope with the LiDAR module. The RGB camera and powerful lighting system on Elios 3 means a readable live feed can be monitored and used to further inspect specific areas, allowing major issues to be flagged and addressed faster.
Elios 3's LiDAR unit makes navigating stopes easier by creating a live 3D map of the flown area while tracking the flight path. This means a pilot can backtrack using the live data on the controller's tablet with ease.
