ABSTRACT

Assembly-level properties defined by a manufactured product's assembly
tree analyzed as trigger predicates to assist identification (i.e., selection
and/or preparation) of inspection requirements for the manufactured product.
Particular emphasis is placed on hierarchical relationships—assembly
identification, effects of manufacturing on the visibility/accessibility of an
assembly to inspection, and using assembly-level semantics to trigger
inspection requirements. The identified inspection requirements are optionally
open (semantic) or closed. In some embodiments, identified inspection
requirements are provided to an automatic inspection planning system
configured to generate an inspection plan, the actions of which said plan
fulfill the inspection requirements.
