AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE SYSTEM AND METHODS

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18334566 titled 'AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE SYSTEM AND METHODS



Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods for an automated method of detecting and reporting structural defects, comprising: obtaining image data of an aircraft, wherein the image data is captured from one or more fixed locations in an environment surrounding the aircraft; isolating one or more aircraft features from the obtained image data to generate isolated aircraft feature image data that includes isolated aircraft features isolated from one or more aircraft features or non-aircraft features; comparing the isolated aircraft feature image data to stored isolated aircraft feature image data; determining, by a processor configured to execute a deep neural network, one or more anomalies in the isolated aircraft feature image data, wherein the anomaly corresponds to a possible maintenance requirement at a determined location; and comparing the determined location of the possible maintenance requirement to a maintenance standard to generate a maintenance plan including one or more steps for repairing the possible maintenance requirement.
