Abstract

Coating Tolerant Thermography's ability to differentiate between chipped paint and structural flaws has clearly been demonstrated. However, the functionality of the final inspection system requires the application of the CTT algorithm to thermal stripes. This paper describes the thermal stripe projector, sensor engines and automatic stripe identification and gradient mapping algorithms required by CTT.
