Robotic Engine Diagnostic Algorithm

PW are looking for an efficient algorithm to scan the entire surface of plane parts to measure plane health, such as plane wings, plane fans, jet engines, etc. The algorithm (preferably Python) must completely scan the plane parts in a reasonable time yet be compressed enough to fit into the matchbox car-like components. The premise of the algorithm is similar to an automatic vacuum cleaner that turns when hitting a wall (sometimes edges in this project’s case) and avoids defects when running into them. The algorithm should be showcased and tested using a virtual simulation (PyTorch or PyBullet).
