As part of the European Horizon 2020<\/a> SME Instrument (GA_768016) \u2013 WEGOOI<\/strong> project, the company \u00a0ALERION<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0, which was awarded the project, traveled to the Gran Canaria island to complete the final demonstration of its drone technology for the automated inspection of marine infrastructures.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>The final test took place on January 29th and it has consisted in the inspection of the 3 turbine blades at the same time (in a single flight) and the real time images analysis on board, for which the use of LiDAR technology (Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging) has been necessary.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>ESTEYCO and\u00a0SGRE<\/a> <\/strong>have collaborated with Alerion this way allowing the use of the first offshore wind turbine in Spain, owned by ESTEYCO, for the aforementioned tests.<\/em><\/p>\n
