Percepto to demonstrate Autonomous Drones at Smart Mining 2.0
Percepto, autonomous industrial drone solutions provider will participate at the Smart Mining 2.0, to exhibit how mining operations around the world are harnessing its multi-mission Drone-in-a-Box (DIB) solution to improve monitoring, inspection, security, safety and compliance. The event, which focuses on transformational technologies in the mining sector, will be held in Toronto from 19-20 September.
At Smart Mining 2.0, Percepto will demonstrate how the next generation of autonomous artificial intelligence powered DIB are able to collect, capture and analyse more data across more applications much faster, and at far lesser cost.
Chief Commercial Officer and Co-Founder of Percepto, Ariel Avitan, explained, “Conducting site surveys, routine noise and dust pollution assessments, daily inventory and equipment checks, perimeter security patrols and production forecasts can all benefit greatly from the rich sources of aerial data and insights that our multi-mission DIB is able to capture and transform into meaningful insights.”
Autonomous drones also minimise risk associated with confirming the clearance of safety zones ahead of planned explosions, as well as providing real-time situation monitoring in the case of an emergency.
Ariel also noted how drones are supporting the increasing use of driverless vehicles, “Drones can assess large sections of roadways quickly and immediately notify personnel of any obstacles that may impede or damage vehicles and slow down operation.”
At Smart Mining 2.0, Ariel will demonstrate how Percepto’s autonomous drones are making the benefits of drone technology more accessible for mining companies around the world. He added, “Mining companies have been quick to recognize the potential of the technology to transform their operations, however the operational expense and availability of skilled pilots has proven prohibitive. With Percepto, once the DIB is deployed the only cost is the electricity to power the system.”
