SONOVISION
Sonovision is a ruggedised, portable ultrasonic inspection system capable of simultaneous
multi-channel Time-of-Flight-Diffraction (TOFD) and Pulse Echo (PE) Corrosion/Erosion
Mapping capable of interfacing to a wide range of single/multi-axis manipulators including
video tracking. The system comes complete with a suite of comprehensive data collection
and off-line analysis software that runs under Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP.
