Engineers from the University of Southern Denmark have created a drone that can actually charge itself without landing.

 

The main feature is the ability to connect to power lines to charge batteries. Thanks to a system of sensors and AI built into the device, the drone detects power lines and connects to them to receive the necessary electricity.

 

The engineering team said the main purpose of these drones is to detect damage and faults in power lines, which can help prevent accidents and ensure the safety of power grids.

 

This will allow efficient and economical maintenance of power grids, which is important for the stability of power supply.

 

Other possible uses of drones are to monitor power lines in hard-to-reach places or over large areas, which can greatly facilitate the process of monitoring power grids for power supply companies.
