SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ROBOTIC INSPECTION

Abstract:

A method for robotic inspection of a part, includes the steps of: supporting the part with a robot mechanism; obtaining part-related sensor input with a sensor positioned to inspect the part supported by the robot mechanism; and controlling movement of the robot mechanism relative to the sensor, wherein the controlling is done by a feedback control unit which receives the sensor input, and the feedback control unit is configured to control the robot mechanism based upon the sensor input.
