Use Case: Aerial Predictive Maintenance for utility infrastructures
An energy infrastructure Predictive Maintenance as a Service (PMaaS) application will be implemented by integrating application specific logic with a complex forwarding graph of VNFs, such as:
• A virtual Media Processing & Analysis (vMPA) VNF able to perform real time video streams processing and analysis. Though this VFV will be specialized for energy infrastructures-related video processing, it will be generic enough to be used for generic video processing and analysis, complementing existing VNFs such CISCO’s Virtualized Video Processing VNF16.
• A virtual Drones Flight Control (vDFC) VNF able to perform real time autonomous control of drones. This VNF will also be quite generic, as it may be used for applications such as precision agriculture, security monitoring of critical infrastructures and crown management.
Cognitive Drone Preventive Maintenance
- Smart Cities
The ultimate project goal of NRG5 project is to render the deployment, operation and management of existing and new communications and energy infrastructures (in the context of the Smart Energy-as-a-Service)easier, safer, more secure and resilient from an operational and financial point of view.
