HEBI RoboticsThis video demonstrates the scanning of a number of complex surfaces using an ultrasonic (UT) thickness probe and an arm that was quickly built of HEBI's R-Series Actuators. The motion is trained by fitting a curved surface a handful of points, and then a dense raster scanning motion is planned and executed along the surface.
The arm itself is lightweight (less than 10 kg) and portable. Since the arm is modular it ca be reconfigured for larger, smaller, or hard-to-reach environments.
The method used to measure and train the surface is general and can be applied to a wide range of complex surfaces that are difficult to automatically scan, like elbows, tees, reducers, inlets, areas around supports, and taps. Some of these other surfaces are shown in the this video: youtu.be/0LgNpKfORHI
The R-Series actuator is a modular, lightweight, sealed, and rugged actuator for quickly creating and deploying robot tools for use in outdoor and harsh environments. More information can be found at: hebirobotics.com/r-series-smart-actuators

As you scan, MAPS measures the full position and orientation of a probe and uses this information to fill in a gridded 2D C-Scan that is mapped onto the full 3D surface.
MAPS provides a rich set of tools to build a 3D corrosion map on an iPad. It can also be used in conjunction with an external flaw detector to build a traditional corrosion map. MAPS can integrate with any system that takes encoder inputs. Examples are systems from Olympus, Zetec, and EddyFi.
HEBI is already working with partners to test MAPS in field and we will be delivering systems at the end of this summer in 2020.

The motion is trained by fitting a curved surface a handful of points, and then a dense raster scanning motion is planned and executed along the surface. During the scanning a 3D and unwrapped 2D depth map (C-Scan) is constructed in real time.
The water flowing out of the end of the arm is needed to sonically couple the probe to the surface, like the coupling gel used in a medical ultrasound. The arm itself is lightweight (less than 10 kg) and portable. Since the arm is modular it ca be reconfigured for larger, smaller, or hard-to-reach environments.
The method used to measure and train the surface is general and can be applied to a wide range of complex surfaces that are difficult to automatically scan, like elbows, tees, reducers, inlets, areas around supports, and taps. Some of these other surfaces are shown in the this video: youtu.be/0LgNpKfORHI
