Research abstract

Gecko's robots eliminate dangerous working conditions by removing humans from confined spaces and heights. Gecko inspections are completed in a fraction of the time compared with traditional methods. Inspected areas are evaluated in real-time with best practice inspection methods such as ultrasound, magnetic induction, and visual, which will enable maintainers to quickly know where and how to make targeted repairs. Gecko is able to acquire and record 270 ultrasonic readings every second while moving at 60 ft per minute. No one can perform such high speed and quality inspections. In addition, all this data is stored in a database that can be reviewed at any time. This database is structured to perform advanced analytics on the data.
