  • Digital video borescope for drilled shaft inspection
    Patent number: 8169477
    Abstract: Visual inspection of an interior surface of a borehole. A housing adapted to be lowered in the borehole supports a portable camera for generating images of a portion of the interior surface of the borehole and a light source for illuminating an area adjacent the camera. A monitor receives signals from the camera and, in response thereto, displays the images generated by the camera. A viewing envelope positioned adjacent the camera defines a viewing area adjacent the camera, particularly for use in visually inspecting slurry-filled boreholes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 7, 2007
    Date of Patent: May 1, 2012
    Assignee: Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc.
