Pipe inspection robots: a review
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2022 Pipelines are one of the safe and most economical ways of transporting fluid matters in industries and households. These pipelines get deteriorated due to aging, internal and external corrosion, and so on. This may cause fluid leakages and may contaminate the environment.

Cornering Algorithm for a Crawler In-Pipe Inspection Robot [PDF]
Symmetry, 2020 Based on the large-scale wall-pressing three-legged crawler pipeline inspection robot, our team proposed a cornering algorithm based on space constraints, that aims to better control the smooth operation of the pipeline robot in the pipeline. This algorithm is aimed at large robots that use an electric telescopic rod structure to replace the elastic ...
