Joowon Industrial's TADS (Thermography Auto analysis Diagnosis System) is an automated solution for this process. A vehicle outfitted with sensors including GPS, azimuth sensors, traditional cameras, infrared sensors and LiDAR automatically capture images of the lines and analyze them for potential issues. According to Joowon, the automated TADS system can process up to three-times more locations than the previous manual process, and the system improves the issue detection rate from 120%-200%. TADS empowers electric contracting companies to achieve approximately 80% savings on overhead power line inspection and management. Recently, Joowon's TADS system adopted Aeva's 4D LiDAR technology to construct a multi-dimensional model of power lines and the surrounding vegetation swiftly and accurately. This advancement is expected to yield further reductions in costs and enhancements in the quality of powerline inspection processes.

"Joowon's TADS system represents a step-change in bringing safety and convenience to power grid maintenance, and with the use of Aeva's 4D LiDAR technology, a new layer of accuracy and reliability is added," said Barrs Lang, Vice President of Global Sales at Aeva. "We look forward to working with Joowon to help them scale their solution in the market."

"We selected Aeva's 4D LiDAR technology because its Ultra Resolution feature delivers high resolution sensing capabilities at long ranges, easily capable of detecting overhead power lines. This allows us to detect potential areas of concern more clearly so our global customers can ensure the reliability of their power grid," said Mr. Doo Hoon Yoon, Joowon Industrial's President. "We are pleased with the results and look forward to a long-standing collaboration with Aeva as we continue to bring innovative solutions to market to improve the quality of life in the 21^st century."
