RAIL-SIDE INSPECTION ASSEMBLIES AND SYSTEMS

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18829200 titled 'RAIL-SIDE INSPECTION ASSEMBLIES AND SYSTEMS

Original Abstract Submitted

An inspection assembly can comprise a first camera, a second camera, one or more lights, and a housing. The first camera can be angled at least partially in a vertical direction and at least partially in a horizontal direction to thereby be configured to capture images of a target region in a three-dimensional space from a first viewpoint. The second camera can be positioned apart from the first camera, angled at least partially in the vertical direction and at least partially in the horizontal direction, and directed to the target region from a second viewpoint that is different from the first viewpoint. The housing can comprise a base and a shroud and can be configured to attach to one or more rail ties and to at least partially envelop the first camera and the second camera.
