Abstract

A method for inspecting an inspection surface using an inspection robot includes operating a first group of ultrasonic sensors with a first calibration set and operating a second group of ultrasonic sensors with a second calibration set. The first group of ultrasonic sensors is included in a first sled assembly of a payload, and the second group of ultrasonic sensors is included in a second sled assembly of the payload. The first group of ultrasonic sensors is at a first characteristic vertical position on the first sled assembly, and the second group of ultrasonic sensors is at a second characteristic vertical position on the second sled assembly. The first calibration set includes a same calibration as the second calibration set, and the second group of ultrasonic sensors provides inspection data that is redundant with inspection data provided by the first group of ultrasonic sensors.
