How it works on your site
The Flybotix ASIO X is a 1.15 kg caged dual-rotor drone that a remote pilot flies inside enclosed assets, capturing 4K video, LiDAR point clouds, thermal imagery and four-gas readings with nobody entering the space. Its six named industries are water infrastructure, energy production, maritime, underground mining, cement and chemicals; construction is not among them. Macomb County's own inspectors fly the sewer interceptors from the manhole portal, so nobody descends the 60 feet into a pipe 12 to 15 feet tall, and county staff run the programme for 25 municipalities and 850,000 residents; those four figures all trace to one Detroit News report of 20 May 2024. The ASIO X reached market in summer 2024 and carries 3 confirmed deployments across 2 customers, with 49 of the 58 claims in this profile sourced from Flybotix itself.
