by any chance? spencer, here is a question. can tech make you a better rapper? sounds like it can, yes. and what s this? lara at a rave. yes, i m at a rave. don t say a word. i ve got bass in a backpack, this is amazing. welcome back. first up this week, we re going to be talking about drones, which gives us a perfect example to show off our shiny new base here in glasgow. which is rather picturesque. not that drones are always welcome. true. james has been checking out some of the latest tech designed to take drones out of the sky. commercial drones have the potential to revolutionise a load of industries from helping with search and rescues, mapping cities, giving information to fire crews after traffic accidents, the possibilities are endless. flying a drone can be seriously fun. there are loads of applications in the world where drones can be used for public good. however in the havoc. in december 2018, a suspected drone at gatwick grounded flights for days. flights have
a lot of wind. only one quarter of the renewable wind energy produced on shetland is used to power the island. so here at kergord, the teams are building an electricity converter station and substation. it will connect shetland to the national grid and allow wind farms to export energy south. it is notjust manpower, but new technologies that are making it happen. it is a big project! bosses at bam nuttall thought a private 56 network would be a good idea. faster internet speeds and better connectivity. we ve got a fibre optic connection that runs in the road just down the valley, we have a microwave link that takes that internet connection into the site and then there is a fibre optic connection to each of the sg masts. what the 56 network does is provide high speed wireless internet connection, low latency and very high speed, essentially as fast as the incoming fibre optic connection.
on the road just down the valley, we have a microwave link to the site and there is a fibre optic connection to each of the 5g masts. what the 5g network does is provide high speed wireless internet connection, low latency and very high speed, essentially as fast as in coming fibre optic connection. and with those 5g masts up, they welcomed a new site inspector. the aim of the engineers is that spot can connect to the 5g network and much of the work can be done remotely. how useful has it been to have spot on the site? it is excellent. it makes our life as engineers a bit easier. gets into places it is unsafe us to go. spot has a scanner attached and makes sure the floor is exactly level after the engineers have poured the concrete. we just performed a scan in there and i will show you the scan we did there. so, green means ideal for our models, blue is a bit low and red, only a few but that
