Boilers are extensively inspected with pipe cameras and video borescopes. Inspections include: boiler fittings for security, boiler feet for cracks and distortion. Pipe Inspection Cameras and Video Borescopes can be used to inspect the internal condition of boilers tubes. A boiler needs to periodically have its cooling tubes checked for imperfections. a pipe inspection camera [...]

Cellular towers need periodic remote visual inspection. Videoscopes or Video borescopes are used to inspect the inner structure of the towers for defects. Inspector will look carefully for corrosion, cracking, pitting, oxidation, weld penetration and general condition of the interior of the immense structures.
Videoscopes are chosen for the remote visual inspection task because of their [...]

Laser Measurement is a remote visual inspection technology to determine working (tip to target) distance when performing a borescopic inspection. While utilizing standard tip adapters, the inspector simply depresses a button on the videoscope control body actuating a laser. A grid is projected onto the target work site. The videoscope interpolates the relative position [...]

Remote visual inspection of aircraft turbines, and other industrial systems of require that defects be measured. This is useful because an aircraft turbine may be able to stay on the wing of an aircraft and avoid expensive and time consuming overhaul depending on the dimensions of a defect. Other industrial systems may be kept operational [...]
