Abstract:
This presentation will introduce audiences to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) in the inspection of our infrastructure. Platform and sensor options will be explored to determine the best combination of tools to complete various tasks. We will also discuss the pros and cons of using these tools under human control as opposed to automated functions. Finally, we will discuss visual inspection, modeling, measuring, and the advancements of AI technology in fault detection.
