Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The exterior structure or fuselage of an aircraft must be frequently inspected to ensure its structural integrity. A plurality of cameras are mounted on defined structures and capture high resolution images of a stationary aircraft or as the aircraft moves past a designated area. A means of illumination is provided to ensure that the images that are captured are useful. Software is provided to store the captured images and artificial intelligence is used to assist in the analysis or issues that may be related to the exterior surface of the airplane. Cameras may also be mounted to self-directed vehicle, which can be remotely controlled, to capture images.
