News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors:“The present disclosure relates to robotic inspection and t reatment of industrial surfaces. These may be performed by a robotic total syste m (RTS) (or “robotic total station”). In the geospatial and landsurveying indus tries, which are example industries in which RTS systems may be deployed, RTS sy stemsare provided with a laser range finder tracking head along with what is kn own as an RTS prism. So longas the laser tracking head has line of sight with a single trihedral corner (TC) reflector, the TC reflectoris oriented correctly, and it is within range, it can accurately plot a location in 3D space based on thelocation of the TC reflector. RTS prisms may be constructed with a single TC reflector or with severalTC reflectors oriented to reflect all light from a si ngular point in free space. In an RTS system, the lasertracking head has a fixe d (X, Y, Z) position. Additionally, the laser tracking head acts as the origin o fa laser beam. The RTS prism, unlike the laser head, is free to move about 3-di mensional (“3D”) spacewhile the distance and angle between the two are measured .”
