HyLight

Zero-emission aerial inspection using hydrogen-powered airship drones for infrastructure.

Visit HyLight

HyLight provides hydrogen-powered airships equipped with sensors and AI for inspecting critical infrastructure such as power lines, pipelines, and railways. The system addresses the limitations of helicopters and short-range drones, which are described as slow, costly, and polluting, by offering long-endurance, zero-emission flights that capture millimeter-level data over long distances.

The airships carry up to 10 kg of LiDAR, optical, and gas-leak detection sensors and operate autonomously with BVLOS connectivity via RF, LTE, and satellite. A patented Vector Trust system with front and rear gyros enables hovering and agility. HyLight's dashboard processes aerial data in real time, providing AI-assisted anomaly detection and 3D reconstruction to identify issues such as broken insulators and vegetation encroachment.

HyLight is built for energy, utilities, transport, local government, and environmental agencies. The pages do not specify packaging details such as free plans, trials, editions, or pricing models.
