| description | A system for detecting radial movement of a robotic apparatus on a pipe, comprising distance sensors configured to measure a distance between their respective fixed positions and a surface of the pipe, and a processor configured to detect a change and determine whether the change is indicative of radial movement. A system for tracking a position of a robotic apparatus on a pipe, comprising mirrored, freely-rotating mecanum wheels, a sensor(s) configured to measure rotation of the mecanum wheels, and a processor configured to calculate a linear displacement of each mecanum wheel and resulting axial and circumferential positions of the robotic apparatus. A method for navigating a bend or curve of a pipe, comprising generating computer models of the robotic apparatus and the pipe, performing a computer simulation to identify a combination of wheel speeds that keeps the wheels in constant contact with the pipe, and operating the wheels accordingly. |
