Designed from the ground up for precision contact inspections, the Batwing X1 is an ideal solution for conducting close-up visual checks and ultrasonic thickness (UT) measurements across marine vessels—even in confined, cluttered, or hard-to-access spaces. Its agile flight performance and protective design allow it to safely navigate areas such as ballast tanks, cargo holds, void spaces, and structural compartments.

Equipped with a high-accuracy UT payload, the Batwing X1 enables inspectors to capture reliable thickness readings on ship hulls, bulkheads, and critical structural components. When combined with its integrated LiDAR mapping system, the drone not only collects measurement data but also precisely localizes each reading within a detailed 3D model of the vessel.

This capability ensures full traceability and simplifies reporting for classification society (CLASS) inspections. By keeping inspectors safely outside hazardous environments and reducing the need for scaffolding or confined space entry, the Batwing X1 significantly improves safety while saving both time and operational costs.
