摘要:This research work presents a inspection robot for crack detection on the structures. It uses suction cupsand servo motors to generate motion and adhesion. This robot is capable of climbing vertical and rough planes byattaching suction cups to the surface and removing it from the surface. Therefore it requires constant amount of energyto climb the planes and Vacuum pumps gives additional energy to the suction cups to maintain adhesion. The detaileddesign of the robot is modelled and fabrication is performed. The goal of the robot is to detect cracks on the wall of thestructures. For that purpose the robot uses digital image processing to aid visual inspection. Canny edge detectionmethod is used to detect edges. Images are stored in the database and are later inspected visually by the operator.
