High-mast Lighting Inspection and Maintenance Robot

I&T Wish High-mast Lighting Inspection and Maintenance Robot
(REF: W-0574)
Matched I&T Solution
Trial Project
Summary and Challenges
  • This robotics solution is designed to enhance the inspection and maintenance of high-mast lighting systems, focusing on structural integrity. By integrating core technologies such as robotics, wireless communication, artificial intelligence (AI), image analysis, and advanced testing methods, the solution modernizes traditional inspection processes.
  • This innovative approach not only enhances safety by reducing human exposure to hazardous conditions but also promotes the digitization of infrastructure management. By providing accurate data and timely insights, it helps ensure the reliability and longevity of high-mast lighting installations, ultimately contributing to safer urban environments.
Expected Outcome
  • The robot’s flexible operating mode revolutionizes the inspection and maintenance of high-mast lighting by eliminating the need for workers to operate at dangerous heights. Traditionally, manual inspections require personnel to climb ladders or use lifts, exposing them to significant safety risks. By automating this process, the robot not only safeguards workers but also enhances overall operational safety.
  • Additionally, the automation simplifies the road closure application process typically needed for manual inspections. Traditional methods often involve extensive planning and coordination, leading to prolonged road closures that disrupt traffic and inconvenience the public.
Expected Trial Duration 12-month
