Helios Visions, T2D2 Partner on Drone Façade Inspections
Chicago-based drone services company Helios Visions has joined forces with T2D2, a software as a service (SaaS) platform that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to identify and assess damage and deterioration to building envelopes and structures to provide AI-powered drone facade inspection services.
“The use of drones for high-rise building façade inspections is faster and can be as much as 50% cheaper than traditional methods, which require expensive scaffolding, drops and lifts,” Helios Visions co-founder Ted Parisot said. “With T2D2, we can streamline the facade inspection process, and greatly improve planning and decision-making for building owners and property managers.”
T2D2, developed within Thornton Tomasetti’s CORE studio incubator and commercialized through the engineering firm’s TTWiiN accelerator, uses data from Thornton Tomasetti’s more than 50 years of building inspection and forensic investigation work, along with detailed drone imagery provided by Helios Visions.
