New drone company lands in Houston from Chicago for Texas region launch
Chicago-based Helios Visions has landed in Houston.
Chicago-based company that provides drone-based infrastructure inspection services has announced new offices in Texas — including Houston.
Helios Visions announced its expansion into Texas earlier this month, and named three new offices in Houston, Austin, and Dallas/Fort Worth. The company specializes in collecting automated and repeatable aerial data via drone technology within the architectural design, engineering design and construction industries.
"Houston, Austin, and Dallas/Fort Worth are large markets, and it is a natural next step of our continuing expansion strategy," says Ted Parisot, co-founder of Helios Visions, in a news release. "Moving into the Texas market allows us to best serve the needs of both existing and new clients in architecture, engineering, construction, and commercial real estate.
"Coupled with the urgent need for infrastructure inspections across the United States, it was the right time to expand our drone services in Texas," he continues. "This also represents the continued growth and value provided by the commercial drone services industry as a whole."
Helios Visions, founded in 2015, will offer its Texas projects drone services in the following areas:
- Infrastructure Inspection (bridges, overpasses, viaducts, etc.)
- Building façade inspection
- Construction progress documentation
- Commercial real estate
"Given its central location and the high population growth trajectory, we knew that expanding into the Texas market would allow us to best serve the needs of both existing and new clients," says Calvin Gin, co-founder of Helios Visions, in the release. "I am often traveling across Texas for other projects including Luby's Restaurants and Charming Studios, so it is a natural progression for Helios Visions to expand our drone service offerings here."
