Infrastructure inspection
Infrastructure inspection faces challenges such as accessing difficult areas, detecting defects and assessing structural integrity. Optics play a crucial role, providing advanced technologies such as inspection cameras, optical sensors and drones equipped with optical systems, enabling precise, non-destructive and safe inspection of infrastructure to ensure good condition and optimal operation.
Discover how INO worked with the Transport Minister (Ministère des Transports) to develop a 3D laser system to characterize and measure pavement rutting.
Pipe Inspection
Pipe inspection presents challenges such as restricted access, leak detection and continuous monitoring. Optics play an essential role, providing advanced technologies such as endoscopic inspection cameras and fiber optic vision systems, enabling precise, real-time inspection of pipes without dismantling them, thus contributing to the early detection of problems and efficient maintenance of pipe networks.
Discover how INO helped Can-Explore strengthen its position as a technological leader in the field of pipe inspection in the case study: Thrive on challenges to offer more and more!
Pipeline Inspection
Pipeline inspection presents challenges such as leak detection, corrosion and structural damage. Optics play a crucial role in providing advanced airborne and ground-based technologies for accurate, real time and uninterrupted pipeline monitoring, contributing to early detection of problems and energy infrastructure safety.

Pipe Inspection in the Digital Age
In today’s hyper-connected world, information circulates instantaneously. Our homes have voice-activated assistants, our cars are equipped with backup cameras, our phones bring us the latest news live anywhere, anytime—in short, everything’s linked. So why still use an imprecise gauge to check pipe ovality? Isn’t it time to switch to a measuring device that gives you quick access to the reliable data you need?
Inspection of Concrete Structures: More Accurate Systems for Better Diagnosis
Global population growth has led to a rapid increase in the number and size of the world’s cities. On a global scale, the urban growth rate is estimated at 3% per year, with city populations increasing much faster than the population as a whole.
Does your leak detection and repair (LDAR) program suffer from a lack of real-time data?
