Abstract:
Provided is a detection system for detecting abnormalities in a coated substrate having a coating and a substrate, and including a detection device that includes a housing configured to block external sources of light from impinging on the coated substrate, a light source array including a plurality of light sources and configured to be arranged to direct light upon the coated substrate, an optical imaging system configured to capture a video data stream and still images of the coating and an underlying surface of the substrate including structure features comprising any abnormalities in the coated substrate, an on-board embedded system to control the light source array and the optical imaging system and perform real-time processing to correct spatial and temporal variations in intensity of the plurality of light sources of the light source array, and spatial and temporal variations in sensitivity and optical Narcissus effect of the optical imaging system.

Claim (Index 19):
A detection method performed by a detection system having a detection device including an on-board embedded system and on-board controls, comprising:\n initiating, via the on-board embedded system, a detection software module locally assessible; powering on the detection device including an optical imaging system; enabling a light source array and adjusting, via the on-board controls, parameters of the light source array, by providing control signals to the on-board embedded system; upon receiving the control signals, employing, via the on-board embedded system, pulse width modulation output signals, to drive the light source array with variable signals to modulate an output intensity of the light source array, wherein lock-in image detection is achieved, thereby collecting and processing video data stream captured via the optical imaging system in real-time to reveal an image of structure features including any abnormalities in the substrate; capturing still images; processing, displaying and storing information including detection instructions of the detection software module and image data in real-time; recording location at which still images are captured, relative to the coated substrate and append environmental data from external sources; and disabling the light source array and powering down the detection device.
