SCALABLE DRONE SERVICE PLATFORM
We are Sevendof, a technology startup based in Trondheim, Norway. Our mission is to enable businesses to use drones as tools, without having to own or operate them. To accomplish this we're building a network of stations housing fully autonomous long-distance drones capable of carrying out missions automatically, without placing humans in the field.
In cooperation with our pilot customers TrønderEnergi Nett and Eidsiva Nett, we are focusing on performing automated power line inspection. The future re-use of the drone network across customers and industries will distribute costs and improve availability for all users.
Pilot use case: Power line inspection
We're working with Norwegian utility companies to build a completely automated data gathering solution.
Our project has R&D funding approval from The Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate for the period 2017-2024.
