Challenges in Drone Technology
Drone technology continues to advance depending on specific applications. For this article, we'll be looking at compact drones used in a variety of applications that need continuous and autonomous inspection of chimneys, shafts, and tanks.
How Drone-Based Construction Progress Monitoring Is Driving Smarter Industrial Workflows
The ultimate goal of drone-based monitoring is transparency. When everyone—from the site foreman to the remote investor—looks at the same high-resolution digital twin, the "guesswork" of construction vanishes.
The Biggest Impact of Autonomous Capture and AI
Autonomous capture will quickly become table stakes. The important question will be which platform can orchestrate robots and agents together in a unified, automated and intelligent way to create the most value.
Automated Multispectral Terrain Mapping Using Drones and Robotics
Multispectral data is valuable for influencing scientific and operational decision-making by providing measurable insights. Compared to standard aerial and satellite imaging, drone-based multispectral surveys are more detailed, time-flexible, and more accurate.
How LAPP Rebuilt Its Inventory Process with Autonomous Drones
For LAPP USA, Corvus One turned a labor-intensive, error-prone process into a nightly automated workflow that provides reliable visibility, reduces costs, and improves customer service.

US Digital's New L2 Low Profile Motor Encoder
The L2 incremental encoder uses US Digital's proven EM1 optical encoder module and disk, which has billions of device-hours of dependable service in customer applications. This product continues US Digital's strong reputation for reliable, field-tested encoders. The L2 is US Digital's lowest height encoder that uses the EM1 module. It has a 0.75 in. bolt-spacing mount. The maximum resolution is 1250 CPR (5000 PPR with quadrature). The L2 comes with a single-ended output. Another benefit of the L2 incremental encoder is its fast installation. The cover snaps onto the base to secure the module. It is designed for use with a high-retention connector or cable (sold separately). Like all US Digital products, the L2 is designed and manufactured in Vancouver, Washington, USA. It is backed by prompt access to our technical and customer service teams with same-day shipping on most orders.
