Dark Zones and Shadows
Remote sites often lack municipal lighting, while conventional light towers provide limited range and uneven coverage.
Night Emergency Construction Lighting Solution
Persistent Aerial Illumination
The Widershine Tethered Drone Lighting System brings high-intensity illumination above remote nighttime worksites, combining rapid setup, wide-area coverage, stable hovering, and continuous ground-supplied power.

Nighttime Worksite Challenges
Disaster relief, road repair, emergency pipeline maintenance, railway fault resolution, and temporary setup for large events are time-critical. At night, conventional ground lighting can slow deployment and leave important areas difficult to see.
Critical Setup Delays
Traditional systems require suitable ground, vehicle positioning, and pole erection before work can begin.
Difficult Energy Supply
Remote operations may depend on noisy, fuel-consuming generators that need refueling and produce fumes.
Ground-Level Hazards
Poor visibility increases trips, falls, and operating errors, while cables and equipment create additional obstacles.
Limited Site Perspective
Ground teams can struggle to identify distant risks and workflow bottlenecks across the full worksite.
Integrated Tethered Drone Lighting System
The solution combines a professional lighting drone with a ground-based tethered power system, creating an elevated light source that can be deployed rapidly and operated continuously.

Professional-grade illumination above the worksite.
High-Output LED Lighting
High-brightness, low-power floodlights deliver tens of thousands of lumens and can illuminate an area comparable to a soccer field.
Stable Continuous Hovering
A professional UAV platform can remain tethered at altitudes of dozens of meters for uninterrupted 24/7 operation without battery-flight limits.
Remote Lighting Control
Operators can adjust brightness, beam angle, and constant or strobe modes wirelessly for different construction phases.
Ground Support
Widershine Tethered Drone Power System
Continuous electricity and data through one robust tether.
Power and Data Transmission
A lightweight, durable tether cable connects the aircraft to the ground unit and removes conventional flight-time constraints.
Flexible Power Sources
The system can operate from grid power, a generator, or a silent battery pack in remote environments.
Portable Rapid Deployment
Portable cases allow the complete system to be unpacked, launched, and operational within approximately 5–10 minutes.
Operational Workflow
Prepare the System
Unpack the portable equipment and connect the ground unit to a generator or battery pack.
Ascend Vertically
Fly the tethered drone to the selected operating height, such as 50 meters.
Adjust the Light
Use the remote controller or ground station to activate and shape wide-area, high-intensity lighting.
Operational Advantages
Rapid Response and Efficiency
Faster deployment than traditional lighting protects valuable rescue or repair time and supports near-daylight nighttime productivity.
Omnidirectional Illumination
The elevated viewpoint provides broad 360° lighting with fewer shadows, improving work accuracy, safety, and command visibility.
Continuous Operation
The tethered power supply provides theoretically unlimited flight endurance for sustained overnight construction.
Safe and Environmentally Conscious
The tether improves flight stability and prevents fly-aways. The system can operate almost silently with zero local emissions and reduces ground-cable trip hazards.
Cost-Effective and Adaptable
One aerial system can replace multiple ground lighting units, reducing equipment and labor requirements while supporting varied field power options.
From Ground Lighting to Persistent Aerial Coverage
The Widershine Tethered Drone Lighting System extends illumination from isolated ground points to the entire work area, supporting modern engineering rescue and emergency response teams during demanding nighttime operations.
