Localization of a robotic crawler for CANDU fuel channel inspection
… positional accuracy of +/- 3.6 mm for the robot crawler over the full 6350 mm distance that the robot travels inside the pressure tube. This is extrapolated from the test results completed over the shorter length test bench with simulated surface unevenness. The key benefits of the pipe crawling …

Design of a power, communications, and cable system for use with a robotic crawler for CANDU fuel channel inspection
… reactor downtime. The proposed system is a robotic crawler inspection system which can inspect the fuel channels while sealed inside the reactor. This allows for simultaneous inspection of multiple fuel channels using multiple copies of the system. The work in this thesis describes …

Robotic Platform for Internal Inspection
This thesis describes the design of a robotic inspection tool which is based on a differential track-drive platform. The robotic inspection tool is a one man-portable UGV that has been developed for the purpose of non-destructive evaluation (NDE) and internal inspection of environments where human …
