Classification society Bureau Veritas is flying the Nolvis X1, a roughly 40 cm drone that navigates by LiDAR without GPS, inside ballast tanks, cargo holds and boilers so surveyors need not enter them. It is used in remote inspections in France, Türkiye, Greece and Denmark, and the partners are studying ultrasonic thickness checks.
