ANRA Technologies has successfully demonstrated its drone inspection capabilities at the New York Power Authority’s (NYPA) facility in White Plains, NY. The event, held on August 1, featured live drone operations and presented ANRA’s Mission Manager software to NYPA executives and invited guests.
Attendees at the demonstration observed various drone operations, including linear inspections and property security monitoring, all coordinated and displayed from the NYPA Smart Operations Center with live video streams and real-time data.
The event highlighted the potential for drone use in utility inspections. Utilising multiple drones, ANRA demonstrated Mission Manager’s real-time monitoring, tracking of multiple drone operations, and streaming live video feeds; all of which were coordinated by ANRA’s airspace management capability. The technology is suitable for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) drone operations and aims to comply with anticipated FAA rules. NYPA recently secured a waiver from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for BVLOS operations, enabling it to deploy drones for more extensive inspections. Mission Manager will help manage these operations safely.
ANRA Technologies has been supporting NYPA’s drone operations since 2022, helping to integrate drone management solutions into their infrastructure.
