About Us
Streamlining the way manual inspections are presently accomplished within the Oil & Gas, Utility, Pulp & Paper, and Maritime industries.
What We Do.
Interactive Aerial is a R&D, engineering, and manufacturing company for unmanned aerial systems based in Traverse City, Michigan. We are currently focused on a drone for internal infrastructure inspections – specifically large confined space, GPS-denied environments. In late 2015, we partnered with a notable robotic inspection company to produce the perfect internal flying drone. With high craftsmanship standards, we built the vehicle from scratch using American suppliers and materials. The Legacy One has already saved companies millions of dollars because of quicker outages by eliminating traditional inspection methods.
Engineering
Our skilled engineering team spends countless hours researching and developing the ideal technology for internal flight. Interactive Aerial’s decommissioned tank makes for the perfect environment to bring advanced features to market.
Assembly
Blending between in-house manufacturing and our premium suppliers, the Legacy One is made and assembled in America. We use precision machined aluminum and premium carbon fiber components to build the perfect indoor flying machine.
Services
We don’t just build Legacy One’s, we’ll come fly them for you as well. Interactive Aerial’s experienced pilots are a perfect solution to that one-time inspection need or to prove the value of UAVs to your management team.
Support
After purchasing a Legacy One, our team will take great care of you with a handful of post-delivery services. Routine maintenance, ongoing training, and hardware/software upgrades are just a few of many ways you’ll be well taken care of.
