Linebird Launches Osprey NPS, an Unmanned Aerial Platform Enabling Direct Contact Measurements on Live Power Lines
"The launch of the Osprey NPS couldn't come at a better time.
- "The launch of the Osprey NPS couldn't come at a better time.
- Each year power line failures result in millions of dollars of revenue losses, power outages, property damage, wildfires, injuries, and even loss of life.
- As a result, power lines require periodic assessment, previously only possible using costly and high-liability manned methods.
- Osprey NPS by Linebird provides a solution by fundamentally changing the way utility companies perform tests on live conductors, allowing for direct contact work to be accomplished using unmanned aerial platforms.
