We provide a one-stop service by providing an inspection service using the small drone IBIS (hereinafter referred to as IBIS) developed and produced in-house and an in-house pilot, and by converting the captured video into 3D through a proprietary system. The company explains that it provides two major services, inspection and rental, and is increasing adoption by many customers by responding to customer needs.
At this exhibition, the compact drone ‘IBIS’ for indoor inspection will be mainly introduced. IBIS, which can inspect on behalf of humans in narrow, dark, dirty, and dangerous places, is equipped with a vibration-proof motor jointly developed with Nippon Computer and can be operated even in harsh industrial environments, and is equipped with Sony’s camera module to provide Full HD image quality even in dark spaces. The ability to take clear pictures was cited as a feature.
In addition, Liberaware also cited the fact that the video taken through its independently developed software can be converted into point cloud, 3D, and orthoimagery, and can be freely managed on the company’s cloud, as an advantage. Broadly speaking, it was emphasized that IBIS contributes to improving customer productivity by ensuring the safety of people and increasing the inspection efficiency of industrial facilities by visualizing invisible risks in dangerous industrial sites.
A Liberaware official said, “We developed a drone that can inspect the inside of facilities with the desire to safely protect the lives of people exposed to the damage caused by Japan’s frequent earthquakes and natural disasters and the risks of aging infrastructure facilities.” “We are dealing with leading large companies in Japan and have achieved more than 300 results,” he explained.
In addition, “We plan to release the indoor inspection drone IBIS 2.0 in the second half of this year with significant upgrades in features such as improved controllability, specifications, and flight time. “The Korean business is also scheduled to be launched in earnest in the first half of this year, and a launch in Korea is also planned to coincide with the launch in Japan,” he said of his future business plans.
