Topological Robot Localization in a Pipe Network [PDF]
UK-RAS Conference for PhD and Early Career Researchers Proceedings, 2020 Topological localization is advantageous for robots with limited sensing ability in pipe networks, where localization is made difficult if a robot incorrectly executes an action and arrives at an unknown junction. Novel incorporation of measurement of distance travelled is used in a Hidden Markov Model based localization method, which is shown to ...

In-pipe Robotic System for Pipe-joint Rehabilitation in Fresh Water Pipes
CoRR, 2019 The robot's objective is to rehabilitate the pipe joints of fresh water supply systems by crawling into water canals and applying a restoration material to repair the pipes. The robot's structure consists of six wheeled-legs, three on the front separated 120° and three on the back in the same configuration, supporting the structure along the centre of ...

Unified Approach to the Motion Design for a Snake Robot Negotiating Complicated Pipe Structures
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021 A unified method for designing the motion of a snake robot negotiating complicated pipe structures is presented. Such robots moving inside pipes must deal with various “obstacles,” such as junctions, bends, diameter changes, shears, and blockages.
