In order to ensure the safety of railway transportation, it is necessary to regularly check for faults and defects in the railway system. Visual inspection technology is conducive to improving the low efficiency, poor economy and inaccurate detection results of traditional detection methods. This paper introduces the research and contribution of various scholars in the field of visual inspection, summarizes the application and development of visual inspection technology in the railway industry, and finally forecasts the future research direction of visual inspection technology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
