Abstract
A system for assessment of a battery cell can include a testing platform, a conveying system, one or more ultrasound sources, one or more ultrasound sensors, and a control unit. The conveying system can move the battery cell to the testing platform for assessment and from the testing platform after the assessment. The control unit can control the one or more ultrasound sources and the one or more ultrasound sensors to perform the assessment. The assessment can include determining a state of the battery cell based on one or more signals generated by the one or more ultrasound sensors. The control unit can control the conveying system to direct the battery cell from the testing platform responsive to the assessment.
