TLDR
The effectiveness of this technique can be used to successfully detect cracks near bolts and the extracting of images of damage sensitive areas from different angles to increase detection of damage and decrease false-positive errors.
Abstract
The visual inspection of bridges demands long inspection time and also makes it difficult to access all areas of the bridge. This paper presents a visual-based crack detection technique for the automatic inspection of bridges. The technique collects images from an aerial camera to identify the presence of damage to the structure. The images are captured without controlling angles or positioning of cameras so there is no need for calibration. This allows the extracting of images of damage sensitive areas from different angles to increase detection of damage and decrease false-positive errors. The images can detect cracks regardless of the size or the possibility of not being visible. The effectiveness of this technique can be used to successfully detect cracks near bolts.
