Will a Robot Ever Understand the 'Feel' of an Inspection?
The use of robotics in inspection is growing rapidly, from drones and crawlers to advanced automated systems. But here’s the big question: can machines ever truly replicate the intuition, adaptability, and “feel” that experienced inspectors bring to the job?
The use of robotics in inspection is growing rapidly, from drones and crawlers to advanced automated systems. But here’s the big question: can machines ever truly replicate the intuition, adaptability, and “feel” that experienced inspectors bring to the job?
In this edition of NDT Talks, we bring together leaders from robotics technology providers and major service organizations to dive into this important conversation. Expect real insights, not just theory, from field challenges to success stories, and where human expertise continues to make the difference.
What you’ll gain from this session:
- A practical view of how robotics is being applied in inspection today
- Perspectives on the gap between human intuition and automation
- Key challenges and opportunities for end-users adopting robotic solutions
- Expert opinions on the future of robotics in service-based NDT work
- A chance to ask your own questions live
Meet the Panelists:
