SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COLLABORATING IN A NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A collaboration system, comprising:
- a computing device configured to communicate with the at least one other computing device via a computing network, and wherein the computing device is configured to;
receive data that has been acquired using one or more non-destructive testing (NDT) inspection devices;
receive an input configured to derive a list of one or more experts indicated as available to collaborate;
receive a selection of at least one expert from the list of experts; and
establish a communication connection between the computing device and the at least one other computing device that corresponds to the at least one expert, wherein the communication connection is configured to share data depicted on the computing device with the at least one other computing device.

Abstract
A collaboration system may include a computing device that may communicate with the at least one other computing device via a computing network network. The computing device may receive data that has been acquired using one or more non-destructive testing (NDT) inspection devices, receive an input that may cause a list of one or more experts indicated as available to collaborate to be derived. The computing device may also receive a selection of at least one expert from the list of experts. After receiving the expert selection, the computing device may establish a communication connection between the computing device and the at least one other computing device that corresponds to the at least one expert. Here, the communication connection may share data depicted on the computing device with the at least one other computing device.
