Development of the generator inspection vehicle and the inspection equipment

Journal of Field Robotics, 2022
AbstractThis article presents a development of a robot which is used for inspecting electrical generators. Traditionally, to inspect an electrical power generator, its rotor is required to remove first and the inspection task is then performed by human. This process consumes time and cost of operation.

Vehicle and cargo inspection system

SPIE Proceedings, 1997
Vehicle and Cargo Inspection System (VACIS) is comprised of a 1 Curie 137 Cs gamma-ray source in a shield and collimator which produces a fan-shaped beam designed to intercept a vertical array of gama-ray detectors contained in a tower structure. The source and detector modules straddle the vehicle or container being inspected and are mounted on self ...
