Smart Fishing and Route Planning System

GLAUCUS is an end-to-end system to help fisheries to optimise their navigation routes and identify the best fishing grounds, dynamically updated to know where it would be more convenient to fish them during the fishing trip. The system will allow fishermen not only to locate the fishing grounds and the best time to fish in them over time but will also provide the optimal route to navigate through the seas, between fishing grounds and/or to the ports.

Using drones to inspect and respond to emergencies on power grids

Instead of having people or helicopters inspect the power grid, KVS Technologies uses automated drones. These drones are mobilized from drone hangars which are placed on the power grid, and they fly out over the grid taking images of the masts. These images are available to the customer in real-time, so that they can find errors on their grids faster and more safely and efficiently than before.
