Abstract

The present invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for inspecting infrastructure. The UAV includes a drone, and a navigation system including one or more sensors for sensing the infrastructure. The navigation system navigates the drone relative to the sensed infrastructure. The UAV further includes an inspection system transported by the navigated drone and for inspecting the infrastructure. Advantageously, the UAV can maneuver to and inspect hard-to-reach locations of the infrastructure. m C ) CN C) C)C C-)C0 '0L
