Abstract
We will use unmanned operation to reduce the need for manual inspections of the vehicle's undercarriage. [Solution] The inspection system comprises a vehicle capable of driving by unmanned driving control and a control unit that operates one or more actuators mounted on the vehicle by unmanned driving control. In the inspection of the vehicle's undercarriage, the control unit operates the actuators corresponding to the inspection points of the vehicle by unmanned driving control.
