Robotic Positioning for Quality Assurance of Feature-Sparse Components Using a Depth-Sensing Camera
IEEE Sensors Journal, 2023 In this article, a novel method for crawler positioning is presented utilizing an onboard depth-sensing camera, which can operate in semistructured, self-similar environments, using only measurements of the sample under inspection to navigate ...

Robot-arm-based mobile HTS SQUID system for NDE of structures [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2008 A robot-arm-based mobile HTS SQUID system was developed for NDE of fixed targets. To realize the system, active magnetic shielding technique using fluxgate as reference sensor for ambient field was applied to a cryocooler-based HTS SQUID gradiometer that was mounted on commercial robot-arm.
