Abstract:Modern cities are dependent on basic services like water and sewer systems including tunnels, which are supported by a pervasive infrastructure. The structural condition of these places is prone to deterioration. To protect the integrity of such systems, regular inspection is required to detect the onset of damage and material failure. It is envisaged that several robotic systems may provide a solution for the inspection task. When the inspection is purely visual, cameras might provide the necessary functional… Show more
