We’re excited to introduce the first autonomous robot of its kind in Scotland to our Blackhillock HVDC #substation, thanks to the innovative minds at Ross Robotics as part of our Network Innovation Allowance project! 🤖 ⚡️ The #robot, known as EXTRM MK4.1, is set to transform how we monitor and maintain high-voltage direct current (#HVDC) #infrastructure and is designed to access areas that are out of bounds for #engineers once energised, providing round-the-clock monitoring of our equipment for early detection of potential issues and maintenance planning, ensuring the reliability and safety of our operations. 👷♀️ EXTRM MK4.1 is capable of withstanding the extreme conditions within high-voltage #electricity systems. It's equipped with advanced cameras and sensors, including visual, thermal, and acoustic imaging technologies, to detect abnormalities. The data collected helps our asset operators in making decisions for future maintenance. 👨🔧👩🔧 ➡️ Read all about the innovative robot and how its helping our teams work safely: https://lnkd.in/ehsazFXC ⬇️ Watch the video below to see the robot in action! #autonomousrobots #innovation
Brilliant video! We hear so much about innovation and possibilities, it’s fantastic to actually see it in action - congratulations to SSEN Transmission for paving the way and showing us the art of the possible! #pioneers
Did I see an Xbox controller their Kevin MacDonald BSc (Hons) MSc ? I can work one of them 😉
Great idea and continual monitoring
Really interesting Kevin MacDonald BSc (Hons) MSc 👍
We’re thrilled to be part of this exciting project! Great working and collaborating with the team at SSEN and hopefully lots of potential for our robots!
