Zurich, Switzerland
Voliro, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Switzerland, is a pioneering company within the Drones, Robotics, and Space industries. Their innovative approach centers on the concept of "Flying robots that inspect by touch," particularly focusing on NDT and LPS inspections for critical infrastructure.
Emerging from ETH Zurich's Autonomous Systems Lab, Voliro has developed the Voliro T, a groundbreaking aerial robot equipped with a patented tiltable-rotor system. This technology allows drones to not only fly and see but also to physically interact with structures, enabling seamless Non-Destructive Testing and Lightning Protection System inspections without the need for traditional scaffolding or shutdowns. Their system supports various sensor payloads and is equipped with AI-powered flight controls, allowing for real-time assessments while infrastructure remains operational.
Recently, Voliro secured an $11.00M Debt Financing investment, reflecting strong investor confidence from notable backers such as Cherry Ventures and noa, underscoring its potential to enhance global infrastructure safety and reliability while minimizing human risk.
