Autonomous hull inspection |
| 摘要 |
A hull inspection robot for autonomously inspecting a hull includes a robot body and a drive subsystem onboard the robot for driving and maneuvering the robot about the hull. An autonomous inspection system non-destructively inspects the hull by detecting a state of or near a portion of the hull and comparing the detected state with a stored state of the portion of the hull. |

1. A hull inspection robot for autonomously inspecting a hull, comprising:
a robot body; a drive subsystem onboard the robot for driving and maneuvering the robot about the hull; and an autonomous inspection system having
a non-destructive detector onboard the robot body configured to non-destructively inspect the hull by detecting a state of or near a portion of the hull,a database onboard the robot body and in communication with the detector and configured to store the state of the portion of the hull obtained by the detector, anda processor onboard the robot body and in communication with the database, the processor being configured to compare the detected state with a stored state of the portion of the hull. |
