The section encompasses the range of equipment that allows for visual inspection from a distance.

Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) is a specialty branch of non-destructive testing used to examine parts for corrosion and damage. This method of inspection is typically used to perform examinations where access to parts are limited or the environment is too dangerous for human presence.

Equipment used includes videoprobes, borescopes, robotic crawlers and remotely operated cameras.
