Abstract:

Disclosed herein is a system for x-ray inspection. The system comprises an x-ray emitter. The system also comprises an x-ray sensor array comprising a first x-ray sensor, a second x-ray sensor adjacent the first x-ray sensor, and a coupler movably coupling the first x-ray sensor to the second x-ray sensor. The first x-ray sensor is movable into a plurality of orientations relative to the second x-ray sensor via the coupler. The system further comprises an imaging device to generate an inspection image based on information from the x-ray sensor array.
