Business challenges

Optelos discovered that using drones could help increase the speed, safety, and accuracy of survey work. This solution could turn data into useful insights and increase the effectiveness in such industries as power, telecommunications, mining, construction, and logistics.

Optelos decided to partner with Flatlogic in order to create drone data management software that collects, recognizes, and classifies various drone shots (solar panel defects, power line maintenance, etc.). The solution enables operators to upload drone shots to the cloud and create data models, which can be viewed and shared. It allows drone operators to analyze a large number of photos automatically.

Here is how the solution works: drones make thousands of shots and our software analyzes them with the help of computer vision. It significantly reduces the costs.

Drones are becoming more and more popular nowadays. Optelos and Flatlogic are still working on building AI analytics software that delivers unsurpassed results with a modern, user-friendly interface.

Solution

We aimed to create an object recognition AI software that could detect solar panel defects. It was decided to use our Sing App Angular Template to accelerate the development process. We agreed to use ANNs to solve this business question. The initial dataset consisted of about 100 real images plus images generated by an augmentations generator. We trained a neural network to recognize solar panel defects and integrated it into the platform.

As a result, our solution reduced operational costs, increased efficiency, and saved hundreds of thousands of dollars to our client. We believe that using AI solutions is the best way to avoid human errors nowadays.
