    Drone remote visual inspection (DRVI) is a non-destructive testing technique that involves the use of drones to conduct remote visual inspections of objects and structures. DRVI combines the capabilities of remote visual inspection (RVI) with the flexibility and mobility of drones, allowing for the inspection of objects and structures that may be difficult or impossible to access using traditional methods.

    DRVI is commonly used in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, aerospace, and petrochemical. It is a valuable tool for identifying potential issues and defects in materials and components, such as cracks, corrosion, or other damage. DRVI can also be used to verify the quality and integrity of an object, such as to ensure that it meets the specified design specifications.

    One of the key advantages of DRVI is that it allows for the inspection of objects and structures that are located in challenging or inaccessible environments. This can include objects that are located in tight or confined spaces, objects that are too large or heavy to be moved, or objects that are located in hazardous environments. By using drones to conduct the inspection, DRVI can provide access to these objects and structures without requiring the use of specialized equipment or putting inspectors at risk.

    DRVI is typically performed by trained and certified inspectors who have experience with the specialized equipment and techniques used in DRVI. The inspection process typically involves the use of a drone equipped with a high-resolution camera or other RVI equipment, such as a borescope or fiberscope. The inspector will carefully operate the drone to obtain clear and detailed images or video of the object or structure being inspected, allowing them to identify any potential issues or defects.

    Overall, drone remote visual inspection is a valuable tool for conducting remote visual inspections of objects and structures in challenging or inaccessible environments. By combining the capabilities of RVI with the flexibility and mobility of drones, DRVI can provide valuable insights and help to ensure the safe and reliable operation of critical equipment and systems.
