PLP and FulcrumAir have partnered to develop a robotic system for installing conductor spacers on overhead power lines. The CSR-18 robot is an unmanned system that automatically and precisely installs PLP’s CUSHION-GRIP Twin Spacers on bundled conductors, helping to reduce safety concerns for lineworkers while also exponentially increasing overall efficiency.

Camera-based incident detection has become an established technology to support tunnel operators in keeping their roads safe and in organizing fast response. After the introduction of thermal cameras as a solution for 24/7 automatic incident detection, systems supported by Artificial Intelligence (AI) may well be the next wave. Today, AI is already bringing incident detection to an even higher performance level. sensors and cameras.
