Abstract: One aspect provides a method, including: displaying, at a display screen, an image of an interior of a pipe, the image being obtained using a pipe inspection robot; accessing, using a processor, calibration data associated with the image; receiving, via an input device, user input marking at least a portion of the image; determining, using a processor, quantitative pipe feature data for at least one feature of the pipe using the marking and the calibration data; and providing, based on the determining, data associated with the at least one feature. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: An embodiment provides a method of controlling a pipe inspection robot, including: detecting, from a headset, brain activity of a user wearing the headset; binning the brain activity of the user into one of a plurality of different bins; the binning comprising accumulating brain activity values for a period of time to establish a brain activity value for the period of time; determining, using the brain activity value, if a threshold level of brain activity has accumulated over the period of time; after the threshold level has been accumulated, identifying a control action to be sent to the pipe inspection robot based on the brain activity value; and controlling the movement of the pipe inspection robot using a control signal associated with the control action. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
