ASIMOV

Aircraft Safe Inspection Module by Operating UAVs
Period: January 2026 - December 2028
Categories: Network infrastructure Funded projects Ongoing Projects
ASIMOV, funded by the Piedmont Region as part of the 2024 SWIch call for proposals, aims to accelerate, make safer, and optimize aircraft deicing operations at airports, reducing the consumption of anti-icing fluids and the operational load on workers. The solution, protected by a EU patent, is based on the use of UAS-Unmanned Aerial System.

ASIMOV is based on a partnership, which includes WPWEB srl, NIMBUS, TOP-IX Consortium, SAGAT, Politecnico di Torino (Dipartimenti DIATI, DAUIN and PIC4SER Interdepartmental Centre).
