NDT professionals can find applications for digital imaging in the real world.
A digital image is made from pixels, the smallest discrete element of a digital image. The image is expressed both in terms of the A to D conversion and in bits. It is helpful to address applications for digital imaging in the real world, where most in the nondestructive test (NDT) community spend a substantial amount of time. Moving to digital images provides cost savings and improved efficiencies.
The NDT community can find a significant opportunity in the casting business. Most manufacturers that make castings are well-intentioned; for example, they are vigilant in looking for Six Sigma in the hope that one day they will make the perfect casting.
