Abstract: An example implementation includes a device that includes a base infrastructure inspection unit and a plurality of modular sensor units attached to the base infrastructure inspection unit. The base infrastructure inspection unit includes a set of one or more processors and a memory device having code executable by the one or more processors. The executable code synchronizes the plurality of sensor units, captures two or more data streams of infrastructure inspection data, combines the data with metadata indicating synchronization between respective ones of the plurality of sensor units, and provides combined metadata and infrastructure inspection data for inclusion in a photorealistic image based on a three-dimensional (3D) model of the infrastructure.

Abstract: One aspect provides a modular inspection robot for inspecting vertical shafts, chambers or tunnels. An embodiment provides related methods and products. One method includes: capturing, using a plurality of video cameras associated with an infrastructure inspection unit, two or more videos of infrastructure; accessing, using one or more processors, image metadata indicating a mesh of connected vertices based on the two or more videos; selecting, using the one or more processors, image data of frames of the two or more videos for inclusion in an output based on the mesh; and outputting, using the one or more processors, a photo-realistic image of the infrastructure comprising the image data selected. Other examples are described and claimed.
