3D Localization for the MagneBike Inspection Robot
The MagneBike inspection robot is a climbing robot equipped with magnetic wheels. The robot is designed to drive on 3D complexly shaped pipe structures, therefore it is necessary to provide 3D visualization tools for the user who remotely controls the robot out of sight. The localization system is required to provide a 3D map of the unknown environment and the 3D location of the robot in the en...
متن کاملMagneBike: toward multi climbing robots for power plant inspection
An ever-growing infrastructure, including existing and newly built power plants, as well as a rising environmental awareness in society call for inspection and maintenance systems of high efficiency. A solution can be found in the development of mobile agents to provide assistive inspection tools with improved autonomy. In collaboration with industry the MagneBike robot for power plant inspecti...
متن کاملVehicle Suspension Inspection by Stewart Robot
The suspension system of a vehicle is one of the most important parts which is involved in the process of vehicle designing. When a vehicle suspension system is designed, the evaluation of its performance against the road disturbances such as shocks and bumps are very important. The most commonly used systems consist of four hydraulic Jacks with mobility in vertical line with low speed and l...
متن کاملMagnetic wheels optimization and application to the MagneBike climbing robot
Magnetic wheels are a powerful solution to design inspection climbing robots with excellent mobility. Magnetic wheels optimization based on simulations and the results that were obtained on prototypes are presented. The measured adhesion was doubled between the classic configuration and a novel multilayer one sharing exactly the same four magnets and the same total volume of iron. This know-how...
متن کاملRobotic three-dimensional imaging system for under-vehicle inspection
We present our research efforts toward the deployment of 3-D sensing technology to an under-vehicle inspection robot. The 3-D sensing modality provides flexibility with ambient lighting and illumination in addition to the ease of visualization, mobility, and increased confidence toward inspection. We leverage laser-based range-imaging techniques to reconstruct the scene of interest and address ...
