Dock for X10: Remote Inspection & Patrol, From an Office Chair

Watch Live: Real-Time Asset Inspection in California & Colorado - From 2,800+ Mi. Away In Florida 📍 - The Old Way: An alert happens. A crew rolls. You wait to understand what’s happening. - The New Way: A remotely docked drone launches automatically. You see the situation live. And act within minutes—not hours. Remote response with docked drones is now a practical, everyday tool to give you eyes on every asset — anytime, from anywhere. Tune in to see how Skydio Dock for X10 is fast, scalable, and designed for the realities of utility operations - whether you’re conducting a planned inspection or responding to an emergency. ⚡️ What You'll See: - Remote Operations = workforce multiplier - one remote operator investigating multiple events at multiple sites - Live remote inspections of a real substation, distribution lines/poles, solar panels, and more with docked drones - New Features — real-time GIS overlays, live video streaming, alert pins and more 💡 What You’ll Learn: - How drones help: cut O&M spend, reduce truck rolls, improve safety, and respond faster - Multiple use cases beyond distribution: supporting emergency response, wildfire mitigation, security, and post-storm inspection - This isn’t just for drone teams: it’s built for control centers, engineers, and reliability teams

With Skydio Dock and Remote Ops, Dominion Energy is able to inspect any asset at any time, from a computer anywhere in the world — and it’s changing their operations. Aging infrastructure, limited resources, natural disasters, and budget constraints complicate asset inspection. With Skydio's dock-based drone technology, Dominion Energy has found an easier way to understand the condition of assets. They remotely launch a self-flying drone from a computer, get near-instant visibility, and make informed decisions in minutes — without leaving their desks. Watch our live demo + Q&A session to see a real-time remote substation inspection, and hear T.F. Butler, Dominion Energy’s Unmanned Systems Group Manager, explain how and why his program relies on remote asset inspection: ✅ Near Real-Time Data. Anytime. Anywhere. ✅ Reduce O&M expense: Conduct routine or event-based inspections from a computer, make informed decisions in minutes. ✅ Better Resource Allocation: No more unnecessary truck rolls — allocate crews more effectively. ✅ Increase Worker Safety: Keep your workers out of harm's way — send intelligent, self-flying drones.
