Investigation of a Mobile Damping Robot for Electric Transmission Lines
… rely on narrow-band fixed absorbers. A mobile damping robot (MDR) can overcome the limitations of these fixed absorbers by actively transporting them to locations of highest amplitude on the cable; i.e., antinodes. These antinodes are where the absorbers can most efficiently remove …

Towards A Mobile Damping Robot For Vibration Reduction of Power Lines
… vibration (WIV). Currently, Inspection robots are used for maintenance efforts while fixed tuned mass dampers (FTMDs) are used to prevent structural damages. However, both solutions are facing many challenges. Inspection robots are limited by their size and considerable power demand, …

Design and Integration of Machine Learning-Based Vision System for Automated Power Line Inspection Using a Mobile Damping Robot
… autonomous inspection framework using a modified Mobile Damping Robot, with two distinct levels of health assessment. The first method focuses on a simpler binary classification, where image filtering techniques—such as Sobel, Scharr, and Gray-scale Variance Normalization—are compared to highlight …
