Aibotix, a leading provider of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) solutions, has been presenting the latest innovations in UAV technology at INTERGEO 2016 in Hamburg, Germany, in celebration of the five-year anniversary of its Aibot X6 UAV.

“The way surveyors and inspection professionals are working has changed significantly during the last five years,” says Lothar Assenmacher, managing director.

“The success of UAVs like the Aibot X6 is not only capturing aerial data but saving time and costs. We have been able to develop new features that complete the system, enabling us to offer everyone the opportunity to invest in the latest technology for aerial surveying and inspection."

Aibotix recently introduced the redesign of Aibotix AiProFlight as well as a broad range of fully integrated standard sensors.

At INTERGEO 2016, which ends on 13 October, Aibotix has been introducing “the next step to make the workflow even simpler with three new features to increase productivity and simplify aerial data capture missions."

The new StoreIn Flight option enables users to store up to 1,500 waypoints on the UAV; with the new TeachIn Flight option, the UAV stores camera and recording position during manual flights, and 3D Visual, the new viewing module, gives pilots a means to visualise their flights in two separate windows.

“These new features in the Aibot X6 UAV and AiProFlight software provide for results-oriented and time-saving processing of large projects,” says Tom Rudolph, director Research & Development.

“Especially professionals in areas like surveying, construction and monitoring will benefit from these latest developments. Standardised workflows and less processing time will be the visible results.”
