Onvol™ offers standalone, motion-powered camera systems for wind turbines. VolCAM devices operate without site power or SCADA and stream imagery to BladeScope™, where computer vision and real engineers check for blade faults like cracks, delamination, attachment-joint and pitch-bearing issues. Result: continuous monitoring between inspections, lower unplanned maintenance costs, and predictable OPEX. BladeScope is the difference between knowing and not!
VolCam™ is a remote control 180 degree camera solution engineered to capture high-resolution images of components and structures inside wind turbine blades and rotor hubs to provide trend monitoring and computer vision detection of common faults
VolDrive™ is an award-winning product that converts motion into electricity, providing a seamless and sustainable power source for wind turbine blade cameras.
What is energy harvesting?
Energy harvesting – is also known as power harvesting, energy scavenging, or ambient power generation. It is the process by which electrical energy is derived from other sources of energy (e.g., solar power, thermal energy, wind energy, salinity gradients, and kinetic energy, also known as ambient energy), then used to power small, wireless autonomous devices, like Internet of things (IoT) devices used in data acquisition, condition monitoring and wireless sensor networks.
