Abstract:The condition of a pressure vessel is normally checked by human operators, which have health and safety risks as well as low working efficiency and high inspection cost. Visual inspection for pressure vessels can be done by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) with the sensing module. Image enhancement techniques and image processing techniques are vital in the UAV inspection of pressure vessels. However, there are several issues to be overcome in the UAV visual inspection of pressure vessels. The images captured … Show more
