Researchers in Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute are developing a modular robot that can creep inside natural gas pipelines to map where pipes are, detect decrepit or leaking pipes, and, when necessary, repair the pipe by applying a resin coating along its inner wall. "We don't even know where all the old pipes are," said [...] The post CMU Robotics Institute Develops System To Detect and Fix Problems in Gas Pipelines appeared first on Robotics Institute Carnegie Mellon University.
