FLYING DRONE FOR INSPECTING SURFACES, AND METHOD FOR INSPECTING SURFACES BY SUCH A FLYING DRONE

A flying drone for inspecting surfaces able to reflect light has a lighting device formed of two light sources each having a shape that is elongate in a longitudinal direction of each of the light sources, two first image acquisition devices, and a second image acquisition device between the two first image acquisition devices. The two light sources are respectively between the second image acquisition device and each of the first image acquisition devices. The flying drone allows effective detection of dents in surfaces by analyzing specular reflections, by the lighting device and of the first image acquisition devices, and effective detection of superficial defects on surfaces by the second image acquisition device, with the lighting device switched off.
