A non destructive (NDT) inspection system is disclosed comprising an inspection device 16 having a transducer placeable in contact with and moveable over the surface of an object 12 to be inspected. A remote position tracking device 24 is arranged to track the movement of the inspection device 16 over the surface of the object 12. A data storage, retrieval and display device, such as a computer 20, is arranged to receive inspection data from the inspection device 16 and positional data from the position tracking device 24. The position tracking device 24 is an optical tracking device and is arranged to transmit position data to the data storage device 20 wirelessly. The NDT inspection system may operate in accordance with any conventional NDT inspection technology such as eddy current or ultrasonic technology. The optical tracking device 24 may be an optical radar device operating in the near infrared range. |
