New EU joint scientific paper on Stereo Thermal Vision published

Terabee collaborates with Multi-robot Systems Group

We are delighted to announce the publication of a new scientific white paper to which we have contributed.

As part of the AERIAL-CORE Multi-robot Systems Group, Terabee worked with the Czech Technical University in Prague and SoftServe to write a scientific paper  “An Application of Stereo Thermal Vision for Preliminary Inspection of Electrical Power Lines by MAVs”. 

The paper covers the use of two Terabee Evo Thermal 33 sensors, used in a stereo configuration, for stereo thermal vision inspection of electrical power lines by UAVs.

Here is an excerpt from the abstract of the paper: “The proposed hardware and software setup allows the detection of overheated power equipment, one of the major causes of power outages. The stereo vision complements the GPS information by finely detecting the potential source of damage while also providing a measure of the harm extension.”
