Abstract: An embodiment provides a method, including: obtaining, from a multi-sensor pipe inspection robot that traverses through the interior of a pipe, sensor data, such as structured laser light sensor data and Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensor data, for the interior of the pipe; identifying a pipe feature using one or more of the sensor data types; selecting an image processing technique based on the pipe feature identified using a stored association between the pipe feature and an image processing technique; and forming an image of the interior of the pipe by implementing the selected image processing technique. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: An autonomous inspector mobile platform robot that is used to inspect a pipe or network of pipes. The robot includes a locomotion device that enables the device to autonomously progress through the pipe and accurately track its pose and odometry during movement. At the same time, image data is autonomously captured to detail the interior portions of the pipe. Images are taken at periodic intervals using a wide angle lens, and additional video images may be captured at locations of interest. Either onboard or offboard the device, each captured image is unwarped (if necessary) and combined with images of adjacent pipe sections to create a complete image of the interior features of the inspected pipe. Optional features include additional sensors and measurement devices, various communications systems to communicate with an end node or the surface, and/or image compression software.

Abstract: An autonomous inspector mobile platform robot (300) that is used to inspect a pipe (380) or network of pipes (380). The robot (300) includes a locomotion device that enables the device to autonomously progress through the pipe (380) and accurately track its pose and odometry during movement. At the same time, image data is autonomously captured to detail the interior portions of the pipe (380). Images are taken at periodic intervals using a wide angle lens, and additional video images may be captured at locations of interest. Either onboard or offboard the device, each captured image is unwarped (if necessary) and combined with images of adjacent pipe (380) sections to create a complete image of the interior features of the inspected pipe (380). Optional features include additional sensors and measurement devices, various communications systems to communicate with an end node or the surface, and/or image compression software.
Abstract translation: 用于检查管道（380）或管道网络（380）的自主检查员移动平台机器人（300）。 机器人（300）包括一个移动装置，其能够使装置自主地通过管道（380）前进，并在运动期间精确地跟踪其姿态和距离。 同时，自动捕获图像数据以细节管道（380）的内部部分。 使用广角镜头以周期性间隔拍摄图像，并且可以在感兴趣的位置捕获附加的视频图像。 无论是在设备上或板外，每个捕获的图像都是不相干的（如果需要的话），并且与相邻管道（380）部分的图像组合，以创建被检查管道（380）的内部特征的完整图像。 可选功能包括附加的传感器和测量设备，与终端节点或表面通信的各种通信系统和/或图像压缩软件。

Abstract: Described is a method of providing an augmented reality (AR) scene of pipe inspection data, including: obtaining, using a processor, pipe inspection data derived from a pipe inspection robot that traverses through the interior of an underground pipe, the pipe inspection data including one or more sets of condition assessment data relating to an interior of the underground pipe; obtaining, using a processor, real-time visual image data of an above-ground surface; combining, using a processor, the pipe inspection data with the real-time visual image data in an AR scene; and displaying, using a display device, the AR scene. Other examples are described and claimed.
