Development and Fuzzy Control of a Pipe Inspection Robot
IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 2010 A new pipe inspection robot, called the National Taiwan University (NTU) Navigator, is described in this paper. The NTU Navigator is lightweight, modularly designed, and easily manipulated and repaired. The robot consists of camera, steering, driving, and functional mechanism modules. Each module has its own control circuit and functions.
