Robotic Ship Hull Inspections..



Now, what if we could take the light of the ship inspection dive or a video camera and track where the diver pointing device whiles the surface components in the hull inspected? What if we did the same for airline pilots , military pilots and aircraft mechanics ?

There is an interesting book that can be read "Fundamentals of Inspection” which is put out by the FAA , specifically Chapter 8 , which has a list of things that must be inspected before relighting , and things that need inspection routine to ensure safe aircraft. Maybe we need to train robotic systems for unmanned ground this in the flight line in the docking bays or Unmanned Aircraft hangars before the operation?

Can we develop algorithms and artificial intelligence to mimic and learn human habits and eye-tracking when it comes to inspection divers helmets topography of ships or pilots doing preflight inspections? I think so. At this time , divers and pilots do not want to be replaced by stupid robotic systems , but these systems are not so stupid once trained to follow human formation in this case.

After all , humans are too stupid to learn to do. So , maybe it's time to consider this new strategy to get those robots on board with the way we do things, and then let them do all these monotonous things and / or dangerous for us - is not that why we have developed these tools in the first place? Please consider all this and think on it .
