Project Name | Artificial Intelligence and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Real-Time Advanced Look-Ahead Subsurface Sensor (AURALSS) |
Project Detail | Oceanit is developing a look-ahead subsurface sensor system that would take advantage of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and electromagnetic (EM) resistivity techniques to avoid damaging existing utilities when undergrounding powerlines. The proposed system pairs an EM sensor on an underground drill string and an antenna mounted to a UAV flying overhead to expand the distance and sensitivity of object identification underground. The system would use machine learning interpretation and high-resolution imaging capabilities to provide real-time guidance for the drill path. |
