CONTROL OF NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING DEVICES

摘要

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium includes computer-executable code having instructions. The instructions are configured to receive data relating to an environment, construct an image of the environment based on the received data, and display the image on a touch-screen device. The instructions are also configured to receive a control gesture via the touch-screen device and interpret the control gesture. Further, the instructions are configured to control an articulating system coupled to the device to control an orientation of a sensor configured to collect the data, control a mode of operation of the sensor, or any combination thereof based on the interpretation of the control gesture.

1. A non-destructive testing (NDT) system, comprising:
a sensor configured to collect data about a surrounding environment; an articulating system configured to move the sensor; a touchscreen configured to display: i) a user interface and ii) an image of the surrounding environment based on the collected data, the touchscreen being configured to receive a plurality of control gestures; and a processor configured to:
interpret each of the plurality of control gestures; andcontrol the articulating system to move the sensor based on the interpretation of the plurality of control gestures.
