Papers by Keyword: Modular Robotic Systems

Abstract: In this paper, the authors present an in-pipe modular robotic system for inspection inside pipes with diameters ranged between 140 and 200 mm. The paper describes the components used for building the modules and the actuating systems.

Abstract: In this paper the authors present three wheeled-type in-pipe modular robotic systems, which are characterized by their adaptable structure based on linkage mechanisms. These modular systems are composed of driving modules (which use mechanisms with articulated elements) and passive modules.
