Motor vehicle inspection and motor vehicle accident mortality. [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Public Health and the Nations Health, 1968
THIS STUDY SOUGHT TO DISCOVER IF STATES WITH COMPULSORY MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION EXHIBIT LOWER MOTOR VEHICLE MORTALITY RATES. THE YEAR 1960 WAS CHOSEN FOR THE STUDY BECAUSE OF THE COMPLETENESS OF THE INFORMATION AVAILABLE FROM THE CENSUS. IN THAT YEAR, 17 STATES, INCLUDING THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, HAD COMPULSORY MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION.

Camber Angle Inspection for Vehicle Wheel Alignments [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2017
This paper introduces an alternative approach to the camber angle measurement for vehicle wheel alignment. Instead of current commercial approaches that apply computation vision techniques, this study aims at realizing a micro-control-unit (MCU)-based camber inspection system with a 3-axis accelerometer.

Inspection-Class Remotely Operated Vehicles—A Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017
This paper presents a review of inspection-class Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). The review divides the classification of inspection-class ROVs; categorising the vehicles in order of size and capability. A state of the art technology review is undertaken, discussing various common subsystems of the ROV.

Autonomous Ultrasonic Inspection Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes2018 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS), 2018
In terms of safety and convenience, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) offers significant benefits when conducting remote NDT evaluations by mitigating hazards and inefficiencies associated with manned access. Traditionally, UAV remote inspections rely on high-resolution cameras, providing a visual overview of surface condition.
