The Apellix precision-controlled aerial robotics systems are based on its patented software platform and enable moving workers to complete work at elevation from harm's way. This allows for unique and innovative drone-based systems that perform real work, such as power washing, painting, and testing (for corrosion and paint thickness). This revolutionizes industries making elevated projects safer, faster, and less expensive. Apellix aerial robots (drones) significantly reduce project costs by decreasing access costs and performing tasks faster than humans creating safer, more desirable jobs and offering a solution to worker shortages.
