Abstract
A system includes a robotic device for moving an inspection tool, a scanner coupleable to the robotic device such that the robotic device is configured to automatically move the scanner to collect data associated with a surface of the object, and a computer system configured to determine a surface profile associated with the surface of the object based on the data, and generate a tool path for inspecting the object using the inspection tool based on the surface profile.
