Meet Skydio.

Inspecting a bridge, a power installation or a large site can put people in difficult positions. Skydio’s drones provide another way to collect visual and thermal information, with flight assistance and obstacle avoidance to help an operator navigate the job.

The X10 combines camera systems with onboard computing. It can be flown with a controller or through remote-operation software. Dock for X10 adds a protected base where a drone can launch, return and recharge for repeat operations.

The software matters as much as the flight. 3D Scan helps plan image capture for detailed models, while remote-operation tools let teams manage missions from a browser. Where and how a drone may fly still depends on the operator, local rules and any required approvals.
