To limit the extent of disassembly needed and thus increase system availability, the concept of mobile robotic inspection has been notionally discussed for over 20 years. Notably this interest in mobile robotic inspection extends beyond aircraft to include civil infrastructure, pipelines, and nuclear plants where some robotic platforms are currently in use. However, the unique challenges associated with complex aircraft systems and structures remain to be addressed. With advancements in the fields of durable polymers, autonomous materials, flexible electronics, tailorable actuation, and others, soft robotics are an increasingly viable solution to the challenge of inspection in access-limited spaces.

We examined electronic properties to understand how different orbitals contribute to the conduction and valence bands in doped materials. Our findings indicate that the valence band is primarily composed of Ti-3<i>d</i> and O-2<i>p</i> orbital states, while the conduction band is influenced by the collective contributions of Ba-4<i>d</i>, Ti-3<i>d</i>, and Ca-3<i>d</i> orbital states. Additionally, our results demonstrate a reduction in the bandgap due to Ca doping, with the extent of variation depending on the substituted sites of the Ca atoms. Furthermore, we investigated modifications in optical properties such as absorption, conductivity, dielectric function, refractive index, extinction coefficient, loss function, and reflectivity in the energy range from 0 to 40 eV. The findings reveal the stability of these characteristics in the infrared and visible light regions, and they also depend on the site substitution of Ca cations within the BaTiO<sub>3</sub> lattice.
