As the robot moves, continuous data readings are captured to show the thickness of the deckplate and how much deterioration has taken place from corrosion and other wear and tear. The robot inspective system extracts thousands of ultrasonic readings per second. (U.S. Navy photo by Dana Rene White/Released)
