Companies in the energy, chemical, oil and gas, mining food and beverage, maritime and pharmaceuticals sectors are using its drones. Customers include Chevron, Con Edison, BP, Solvay, GE and SUEZ.
“When the time came, we flew into a Hi Rad (radiation) area and inspected a small leak saving 900mr of dose to a person who would have had to perform the work. The thermal and high-quality video was instrumental in determining the cause of the issue and the fix.”
"The past few years have seen a flurry of innovation in drones and their application across many different industries. Since standard outdoor drones suffer several technical constraints when flying indoor due to their reliance on GPS signal and vulnerability to impacts, Flyability designed Elios, which its innovators describe as the collision-tolerant drone.”
"For most drones, a tendency to crash into stationary objects would be seen as a design flaw -- for "Gimball," it's the secret of its success. Its creators -- Swiss company Flyability -- are traveling home from Dubai $1 million richer after winning the "Drones for Good" international competition, on February 7, 2015."
"A clever, bizarre-looking drone that may one day save your butt has won a million bucks in the UAE's Drones for Good competition."
"Last year, Lausanne, Switzerland-based startup Flyability partnered with the mountain rescue team at Zermatt Glacier in the Swiss Alps to offer them the services of Gimball, which is quite possibly the only robot that doesn’t care even a little bit whether you drop it into the bowels of a glacier."
"Protected by a free-spinning cage, the Gimball drone is designed to bounce off obstacles that it encounters in its flight path."
