Capital assets for any industry are the foundation of growth. These revenue-generators need extraordinary attention and care. Drone programs do it very effectively. Apart from asset management, drones play important roles in the machine and human safety. This includes process optimization, consistency, and quality of production, inventory management, plant and people efficiency, green production, regulatory compliances, time and cost savings, etc. Drones added with AI (Artificial Intelligence), AR (Augmented Reality), ML (Machine Learning), DL (Deep Learning), Robotics and Cloud/Edge computing deliver unmatched results in various industrial domains.

As per a recent survey by MDPI- 82% of process plants across the globe will use drones in their regular operations by the end of 2025.

Every industry & application has different objectives & benefits of using drones but a few common benefits are:

• Safety- Human and Machine Safety

• Time-saving – Less time for data collection and processing

• Cost saving–Savings on manpower and other equipment costs, and huge time saving translates into considerable cost saving

• Accurate and detailed information – Due to advanced technologies like high resolution RGB/thermal/LiDAR      payloads, drones are able to capture micro-level details from different angles

• Enhanced productivity– Low initial costs and short time of capturing data/images make drones the most effective tool for monitoring workforce efficiency and timely completion of production targets

• Improved business decisions-Availability of detailed and accurate data at the     right time significantly upgrades decision making

• Eco-friendly inspection process- No other vehicle, machinery or resources are required and there is no disturbance to natural assets and wildlife
