摘要： The present invention provides a compact optical probe assembly that measures ultrasound in materials. The probe uses angle-terminated optical fiber to direct illumination laser light at the surface of a remote target. Ultrasonic displacements at the surface scatter the illumination laser light. Angle-terminated optical fibers collect phase modulated light and direct the phase modulated light to an optical processor to produce a signal representative of the ultrasonic surface displacements. The probe may also incorporate angle-terminated optical fibers to direct generation laser light to the surface of a remote target to generate ultrasonic surface displacements. Optional shared beam forming element(s) may optically act on the illumination laser and collected phase modulated light.

摘要： A depth mapping device equipped with a 2D optical pattern projection mounted on a tool attached to a robot may be used to measure distance between the tool and an object. Depth data generated by the depth mapping device can be used to generate an augmented-reality image to provide real-time information about the object position, orientation, or other measurements to an operator performing a industrial robotic process. Images also may be generated with a camera located on the robot. Real-time depth information may be used to prevent collision. Fast depth information acquisition may be used to modify robot position for better processing. Real-time data acquisition plus fast processing may provide augmented-reality images to operators for better robot programming. Location data of the industrial process on the object may be used to improve analysis of the industrial process data.

摘要： The present invention provides a method to detect and generate ultrasonic displacements at a remote target for ultrasonic inspection. This method involves generating an ultrasonic wave at a first location on an upper surface of the remote target. This ultrasonic wave is reflected from interior surfaces within the remote target wherein the reflected ultrasonic wave produces ultrasonic displacement at a second location on the upper surface of the remote target. A detection laser beam is generated and directed to the second location on the upper surface of the remote target. Here, the detection laser beam is scattered by the ultrasonic displacements to produce phase-modulated light. This phase-modulated light is collected and processed to obtain data representative of the ultrasonic surface displacements. Further, these ultrasonic displacements, when processed, will yield inspection information associated with the interior of the remote target.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention relate to a laser system and method for the optical generation of ultrasound at a remote target. This involves generating a pump laser beam with a diode-pumped fiber laser. The diode pumped fiber laser is fiber-coupled with an optical fiber, either passive or diode pumped, to a generation laser head. The generation laser head generates a generation laser beam from the pump laser beam and directs the generation laser beam to the surface of the remote target. The interaction between generation laser beam and the surface of the remote target results in ultrasonic displacements at the remote target. These ultrasonic displacements may be sampled in order to assess and inspect the remote target.
