Inspection of Aircraft Wing Panels Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles [PDF]

Sensors, 2019
In large civil aircraft manufacturing, a time-consuming post-production process is the non-destructive inspection of wing panels. This work aims to address this challenge and improve the defects’ detection by performing automated aerial inspection using a small off-the-shelf multirotor.
