Describes the technological developments which are establishing the foundation for an exciting era of in situ exploration missions to planets comets and asteroids with advanced robotic systems. Also outlines important concurrent terrestrial applications and spin offs of the space robotics technology. These include high-precision robotic manipulators for microsurgical operations and dexterous arm control systems. Purpose To present an overview of the research and development carried out by an EC Framework 6 part funded consortium known as MICROSCAN for the implementation of an in-line PCB inspection prototype system that is capable of offering comprehensive defect detection. Design/methodology/approach Four non-destructive testing inspection modules based on digital radiography (X-ray) inspection thermal inspection automated-optical inspection and acoustic inspection have been integrated to form a combined inspection system. Findings A proof in principle in-line PCB inspection system utilising four different i |
