SENSYN CORE Infrastructure Inspection AI Platform

SENSYN ROBOTICS is a Tokyo-based company founded on 1 October 2015 that provides social infrastructure DX using AI, robotics and IoT. With about 108 employees and investors including Itochu Technology-Ventures, ENEOS Innovation Partners, Takenaka and Chiyoda, it serves plant, energy, construction and disaster-response customers in Japan.

SENSYN CORE is its application development platform with three parts. SENSYN Edge controls drones and robots, automating route planning and autonomous data collection that recognizes inspection targets. SENSYN Data links field data from sensors and robots to location and equipment records and converts images to 3D. SENSYN AI provides pre-trained models that detect rust, cracks and temperature anomalies, read analog meters and predict failures, with an ML Ops loop that learns from user feedback. Applications include wind blade damage detection, facade tile inspection and real-time transmission line anomaly detection; the company also resells Skydio drones.

• SENSYN Edge: automated route planning and autonomous data collection by drones and robots.
• SENSYN Data: field data linked to location and equipment, with image-to-3D processing.
• SENSYN AI: pre-trained recognition, prediction and automation models.
• ML Ops: user feedback on results retrains models continuously.
• Inspection apps: wind blade damage, facade tiles, transmission lines and analog meter reading.
• Data linkage: SENSYN CORE Datastore connects with Box.

• Refineries and petrochemical complexes automating rust and leak checks on tanks and pipe racks.
• Power companies detecting transmission line anomalies and reading substation meters automatically.
• Construction firms inspecting high-rise facades for loose or cracked tiles.

• Combines device control, data management and AI in one platform, so inspection apps can be built and deployed quickly.
• Automates detection of rust, cracks and temperature anomalies, reducing manual image review.
• Digitizes analog meter readings at substations and plants, cutting patrol work.
• ML Ops feedback keeps models improving with each inspection cycle.

Japan's ageing infrastructure and shrinking workforce are driving rapid adoption of drones, robots and AI for routine inspection in plants, energy and construction. The same pressures are emerging in Southeast Asia as industrial assets age and skilled inspectors become scarce. Platforms that combine device control, data and AI are replacing single-purpose tools.
