To provide a system for performing automated assessment of aircraft structure damage.SOLUTION: An automated damage assessment system 100 includes a camera module 110 that includes a first infrared camera 302, a second infrared camera 304 and a visible light camera 306. The system further includes an autonomous vehicle 120 that includes a vertically extendable arm 122 attached to the camera module. The system also includes a processor 532 configured to initiate movement of the autonomous vehicle around an aircraft according to a predetermined path, initiate a scan 536 of an exterior surface of the aircraft using the first infrared camera, the second infrared camera, the visible light camera, or a combination thereof, determine whether a portion of the exterior surface of the aircraft is damaged based on the scan, and, in response to the portion of the exterior surface of the aircraft being damaged, use the first infrared camera, the second infrared camera and the visible light camera to generate a three-dimensional model 542 of the portion of the exterior surface of the aircraft.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5

    【課題】航空機構造体の損傷の自動評価を行うシステムを提供する。【解決手段】自動損傷評価システム100は、第1赤外線カメラ302、第2赤外線カメラ304、及び可視光カメラ306を含むカメラモジュール110を含む。システムは、前記カメラモジュールに取り付けられた垂直伸縮アーム122を有する自律走行車120を含む。システムは、航空機の周囲での所定経路に従った自律走行車の移動を起動し、第1赤外線カメラ、第2赤外線カメラ、可視光カメラ、またはこれらの組み合わせを用いた、航空機の外装面のスキャン536を起動し、このスキャンに基づいて、航空機の外装面の一部が損傷しているかどうかを判定し、航空機の外装面の一部が損傷していることを受けて、第1赤外線カメラ、第2赤外線カメラ、及び可視光カメラを用いて、航空機の外装面の一部の三次元モデル542を作成するように構成されたプロセッサ532も含む。【選択図】図5
