Abstract:
Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure relate to devices, systems and methods for conducting non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of a wooden specimen, where structural integrity of the wooden specimen is assessed without being compromised. A non-limiting example of a wooden specimen is a wooden utility pole. One or more NDE devices, attached to the wooden specimen, are configured to transmit and/or receive ultrasonic signals to execute NDE of the wooden specimen. An exemplary NDE device may be controlled by another computing device via a data transmission connection. Examples described herein pertain to a variety of coverages that comprise but are not limited to: coverage for a single NDE device; coverage for a system of two or more NDE devices that are utilized to conduct NDE of the wooden specimen; and coverage where one or more NDE devices interface with one or more computing devices to conduct NDE of the wooden specimen.
