UAVs in the construction sector

Inspecting dams, bridges and other hard-to-reach structures can be challenging, time-consuming and costly. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are changing the game by enabling efficient, remote inspection while capturing high-quality images for structural assessment and damage detection.

However, reliable inspection data starts with a stable flight platform.

In demanding construction and infrastructure environments, drones may face strong gusts, turbulence and rapid changes in orientation. Precise motion sensing and control are, therefore, essential for maintaining stability and accurate positioning.

ASC 271 (uniaxial) and ASC 273 (triaxial) gyroscopes support dynamic yaw and roll rate measurements as well as precise position and motion monitoring. Their high-performance sensing capabilities help UAVs maintain optimal orientation and stabilization – even under challenging environmental conditions.

The outcome? Reliable inspection data, improved maintenance planning and insights that can help extend the operational life of critical infrastructure.
