A non-transitory computer readable medium may include executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to provide for a non-destructive testing (NDT) ecosystem. The NDT ecosystem includes a repository of digital content, and a store configured to sell the digital content to a customer, wherein the digital content is executable by a NDT device and wherein the digital content is created by a plurality of entities.

Systems and methods for a non-destructive testing ecosystem

A method includes receiving data characterizing digital content from a repository of digital content. The method also includes receiving data characterizing a right to use the digital content from a store configured to sell a right to use the digital content to a customer associated with a non-destructive testing device. The method further includes performing an inspection of machinery using the non-destructive testing device based on the received digital content and the received right to use the digital content. The inspection can be performed by one or more of executing, using, and displaying the digital content. Related systems, devices, and non-transitory computer-readable mediums are also described.

Systems and methods for non-destructive testing online stores

A non-transitory computer readable medium may include executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to provide for a repository of digital content, and to provide for a store configured to sell a right to use the digital content to a customer and to transmit the digital content to a non-destructive testing (NDT) device, and wherein the digital content is configured to be executed by, used by, or displayed the NDT device, or a combination thereof.

A system may include a non-destructive testing (NDT) device. The NDT device may further include a communications system configured to receive control data from an external system, wherein the NDT device is configured to use the control data to control a component included in the NDT device, to control a parameter of the NDT device, or a combination thereof.

Systems and methods for control of a non-destructive testing system

A testing system for use in conducting testing of a structure, and a method for configuring a testing system are provided. The testing system includes a testing device that includes a presentation interface, a user input interface, a memory device and a processor coupled in communication with the presentation interface, the user input interface, and the memory device. The processor causes the testing device to present to a user, prior to a test session, at least one demonstrative instruction for conducting a test session using the testing device, and at least one test instruction for use while the user is conducting a test session using the device.

Testing system and method

A non-transitory computer readable medium may include executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor provide for a repository of digital content and to create a first license based on the digital content. The instructions further cause the processor to transmit the first license and the digital content to a non-destructive testing (NDT) device, and wherein the digital content is configured to be executed by, used by, or displayed by the NDT device, or a combination thereof, based on the first license.

Systems and methods for licensing non-destructive testing content

A non-transitory computer readable medium may include executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to authenticate a user, and to retrieve a user profile based on the user. The instructions further cause the processor to apply the user profile to restrict an operation of a non-destructive testing (NDT) device.

Systems and methods for non-destructive testing user profiles

A non-transitory computer readable medium may include executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to transmit device identification information and to receive a space requirement based on a digital content. The instructions further cause the processor to compare a memory space to the space requirement, and if the memory space is greater than the space requirement, receive a digital content based on the device identification, wherein the digital content is configured to be executed by, used by, or displayed by a non-destructive testing (NDT) device, or a combination thereof.

Systems and methods for synchronizing non-destructive testing devices

A system includes a non-destructive testing (NDT) system having an NDT probe and a processor. The NDT probe includes a testing sensor and a motion sensor. The testing sensor is configured to capture sensor data from an inspection area, and the motion sensor is configured to detect a measurement speed at which the NDT probe moves relative to the inspection area. The processor is configured to determine a speed comparison between the measurement speed and a reference speed range.
