Abstract
Inspection and repair of sewerage system with small pipe
diameters raises challenging requirements for robotics
equipment. This paper addresses the system design,
navigation and telediagnosis techniques for a repair robot. A
critical task is to navigate the robot to the leakage area and
to monitor the repair process. For telediagnosis purposes,
these sensor data are to be further processed and transmitted
to a remote service centre. The related sensor system and
sensor data processing methods are described in more detail.
