OnePlanetCapital led the pre Series A round with participation from L-Stone Capital, Brookstreet Equity Partners, Deeptech Labs, TSP Ventures and Metavallon VC to fund overseas growth and team expansion.

Perceptual Robotics develops autonomous drone technology and artificial intelligence software for inspecting wind turbines. The Bristol-based firm automates damage detection to help operators reduce downtime and maintenance costs.

Perceptual Robotics has secured a pre Series A funding round led by OnePlanetCapital. The consortium includes L-Stone Capital alongside existing backers Brookstreet Equity Partners, Deeptech Labs, TSP Ventures and Metavallon VC.

The Bristol-headquartered company plans to deploy the capital to support its expansion into North America and Latin America, as well as double its headcount. The latest investment follows the launch of operations in Southeast Asia earlier this year.

Alongside financial backing, the firm will leverage OnePlanetCapital's expertise in sustainability and maintenance operations as it broadens its offshore inspection capabilities and advanced analytics.
