Details

This presentation will introduce examples of the use of digital technologies such as tablets, smart glasses, and AI to improve the efficiency and quality of non-destructive inspections at refineries and petrochemical plants.
A system using smart glasses and tablet devices that can share images and audio between the field and the office was developed for visual testing.This system has enabled experienced inspectors to transfer their skills to younger inspectors, allowing them to quickly report to plant users.
During ultrasonic testing, the screen of the ultrasonic flaw detector was projected onto a wearable monitor worn by the inspector, and the screen was placed directly in front of the inspector's eyes.
This wearable monitor reduces the workload of inspectors and improves inspection accuracy.
A tool has been developed that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to support the analysis of eddy current test data.
By supporting the inspection with AI, the analysis time for inspectors was reduced by approximately 60%.
