Unleash live shows how 5G benefits are realized through powerline analytics for Endeavour Energy.
Improving monitoring and fault inspection to drive down costs and improve operations. Just one example of how we’re transforming the way critical infrastructure is built and maintained.
Powerful things happen when technologies and like-minded innovators merge to solve problems. Problems such as aging utility poles requiring constant maintenance, devastating bushfires started by faulty power lines and damage to assets on a large scale from flooding - all impacting millions of customers.
Together with AWS’s secure and scalable infrastructure and Optus Telecommunications 5G network, Unleash live is providing the solution to monitor Endeavour Energy network with Autofly and real time A.I. Powerline. With Endeavour energy’s certified Drone pilots capturing high definition images from the field and apply AI to allow for a rapid analysis of the infrastructure and any potential faults or damage.
Recently, media covered the successful project showcasing to Minister Fletcher, Australian Federal Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts with a live demonstration of Unleash live’s Autofly.
“This is great technology that's putting Australia right on the forefront…”
- Hon Paul Fletcher, MP
Key benefits:
Now Endeavor Energy has a scalable low cost and high quality digital inspection team at their fingertips to better manage their vast network.
-
Decrease the time to diagnose faults and increase frequency of inspections - Costly and potentially hazardous methods for inspecting are a thing of the past.
-
Increase the quality of reporting and asset condition monitoring over time - A visual asset library of your infrastructure is an incredibly powerful method for tracking assets over time, dramatically improving preventive maintenance and cutting costs.
-
Improve collaboration between the field and HQ - Insights turn into action when 4K images can be shared at a moment's notice between teams.
-
Improve field worker safety - Reducing the need to put workers in unsafe environments.
“With the advantage of artificial intelligence, we can actually have the computers study our network better than the human brain can and identify faults in our network before they happen and we can fix them before it's an issue.”
- Scott Ryan, Chief Asset and Operating Officer, Endeavour Energy
Raising the bar for what’s possible - now
The innovation doesn’t stop with 5G A.I. flights. The applicability of real video analytics is suited for virtually any industry requiring large scale inspections and analysis such as Wind and Solar farms, Mining, Transport and Cities. The next generation operational improvements are here. Autofly allows for remotely controlled drones by anyone, anywhere in the world. It provides Zoom call-like experience, but instead of a webcam on your desk, it's a drone being remotely piloted with live collaboration with the team on the ground sharing inspection insights. Let us show you how we can help you transform your operation to be safer, more efficient and less costly.
