02:30 INSPECT robots
A network of ‘periscopes’ permanently embedded within the engine, enabling it to inspect itself using the periscope cameras to spot and report any maintenance requirements.
03:16 FLARE – a pair of ‘snake’
FLARE – a pair of ‘snake’ robots which are flexible enough to travel through an engine, like an endoscope, before carrying out patch repairs to damaged thermal barrier coatings.
04:13 SWARM robots
A set of collaborative, miniature robots, each around 10mm in diameter which would be deposited in the centre of an engine via a ‘snake’ robot and would then perform a visual inspection of hard to reach areas by crawling through the engine.
