In order to improve safety in the maintenance of high voltage power lines, engineers propose a maintenance robot in its 2.0 version, which is an improvement of the 1.0 version that won the 2021 Indecopi invention contest. The prototype in this new version has a resistant and aerodynamic platform with high pressure sensors and artificial vision cameras to detect faults, damage or irregularities in the transmission lines.
Its advanced technology allows it to perform maintenance tasks faster and more accurately than traditional methods at a distance of up to 100 meters. The device has a sensor that provides detailed analysis in the form of statistical data and evaluates deficiencies, the results are displayed through a mobile application in real time.

“Given the complexity of high voltage cable maintenance work, we decided to create a robot that could help us solve this problem, which allows monitoring to be carried out in less time, reducing costs and in a safer way,” said David Condezo.
