Developing a nondestructive test system using drone for aircraft inspection

Safety has always been the most important thing in the aircraft industry. Every aircraft has to be inspected and repaired if there are any defects. The current existing method of aircraft inspection requires heavy machinery, and it is time-consuming. This project is to make an alternative method for...

description Safety has always been the most important thing in the aircraft industry. Every aircraft has to be inspected and repaired if there are any defects. The current existing method of aircraft inspection requires heavy machinery, and it is time-consuming. This project is to make an alternative method for inspectors to do a visual inspection that is more efficient than the existing method. For the project, Intel Realsense Depth Camera D435i was used for its depth capability and DJI Phantom 4 Pro V2 as the drone for the new system. Tests were done to analyse the device's accuracy to see if it can be used in an aircraft inspection. The tests involve depth analysis system test, the wireless range for system test, and drone camera movement test with a depth camera. Depth analysis system test has few tests such as maximum distance test, horizontal angled camera test and vertical angle camera test. For the maximum distance test, the distance obtained was 130 cm. The result obtained for the horizontal angle test is that the camera can get accurate data from 60� to 90� horizontally, measured from the aluminium plane surface. In contrast, it can get accurate data from 80� to 90� from the plane surface for the vertical angle test. � 2023 AIP Publishing LLC.
