PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for enabling remote inspection of structures or objects by an unmanned mobile vehicle.SOLUTION: A nondestructive inspection (NDI) system comprises: an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) 105 comprising a body structure 115, the body structure 115 comprising one or more support structures 120, where each of the support structures 120 comprises a releasable end structure; and one or more NDI sensors integrated with the corresponding releasable end structure. The NDI system can also include a location tracking system to determine a position, an orientation, or both of the UAV 105 and/or NDI sensors relative to a structure 110 being inspected.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
