Steam pipeline is one of the important power sources of cigarette factory and other factories, steam pipeline inspection is the daily work of the staff, but there are many disadvantages of manual inspection. Therefore, by designing an unmanned inspection vehicle to realize steam pipeline inspection. The inspection vehicle includes infrared tracking module, infrared obstacle avoidance module, environment detection module, infrared thermal imaging sensor detection module, image transmission module. It can realize the underground pipeline corridor environment detection and steam pipeline defect detection, and realize the safe production of steam pipeline.

“…For this, a gamepad is usually used as the external control devices of the industrial robot in many studies. Zhou et al 10 used a gamepad as the external controller to operate a novel miniature robot. The problem of control delay can be avoided, but it is complicated to control the robot by the scattered control buttons on the gamepad.…”

This study is interested in how to remotely control the industrial robot with a joystick. Thus, a robotic remote control system was designed. The developed system solved two key problems. One is to realize the information exchange between robot operating system (ROS) and control cabinet. A new application program interface (API) was developed to carry out the secondary development of industrial robots. Ethernet connection was used to exchange system data and the communication delay is less than 10 ms. The other is to improve the robot operation efficiency. Because of the joystick’s unique operation mode, the robot motion operation can be realized efficiently and reliably through a joystick as an external input device of ROS. Finally, the validating experiments were carried out to compare the work efficiency of robot manipulation using joystick, jogging keys and 6D Mouse. The comparison results demonstrates that the operation efficiency using joystick can be increased by at least 20% compared to using jogging keys and 6D Mouse.

“…Although smart materials allow these swimming robots to retain mollusklike morphology, force output and power consumption are sacrificed when using these actuators, thus compromising mantle deformation and swimming performance. For small jetting robots, a uniform-mantle design with circumferential actuation is desirable [5][6][7]. Therefore, it was necessary to investigate an alternative method for achieving a uniform-mantle mollusk contraction using conventional electric motors.…”

Origami enables the folding of objects into a variety of shapes. This paper presents a swimming robot using the folding and unfolding motion of a tabular origami. A squid-inspired jet propulsion mechanism is used to design an origami swimming robot. The swimming robot utilizes a pulsed-jet mechanism through the folding motion of the tubular origami structure, which could deform and undulate to provide propulsion for the swimming robot. The robot is incorporated in a stable body, while both swimming forward and steering are generated by the folding motion of the origami structure and undulating fins. An analytical model to investigate the jet propulsion mechanism to capture the relationship between the motor's speed and the generated thrust is developed. The prototype of the swimming robot is fabricated by 3D printing, and experiments verify the robot's components and assembly system. The results show that the swimming robot could achieve swimming forward by folding origami, which could provide unique advantages over other existing underwater propulsion technologies, including scalability and water treatment capabilities. The origami structure provides a novel and simple propulsion mechanism for the swimming robot here, and the mechanism promotes the development of a new class of independent swimming robots. INTRODUCTIONSwimming robots can remote access most of the Earth's surface for a variety of environmental, archaeological, industrial, and scientific purposes [1][2][3]. Many practical applications for swimming robots in this setting include exploration and inspection tasks. In the past few decades, the growing demands for swimming applications have driven the research of swimming robots [4][5]. The way to propulsion is one of the essential features of underwater robots. After years of evolution, aquatic animals have different propulsion methods with high efficiency. The way they move and the streamlined shape can significantly reduce underwater resistance. Many bionic swimming robots are inspired by their biological counterparts [6][7][8][9]. Most underwater creatures oscillate or undulate through their fins that imitate the swinging or undulating mode to generate propulsion power. The undulating bionic underwater robot can drive its body to swing asymmetrical alternately on the left and This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
