Abstract
A method for inspecting surfaces including acquiring a surface image from a surface of a component; providing an image registration for the surface image; inspecting the component in response to the image registration to produce an input data set; creating an output data set in response to the input data set utilizing a fuzzy logic algorithm; and identifying a surface feature in response to the surface image and the output data set where acquiring the surface image further includes generating a radiation media; directing the radiation media at the component; detecting a responding radiation media in response to the directed radiation media and the component; creating the surface image in response to detecting the responding radiation media; and adjusting the generation of the radiation media in response to the surface image and a standard image.
