In-Pipe Inspection Robot Capable of Actively Exerting Propulsive and Tractive Forces With Linear Antagonistic Mechanism

In this study, the authors comprehensively evaluated the traveling performance of a flexible pipe inspection robot (PI-RO) that can actively output both propulsion and traction forces. Household pipes must be frequently inspected for cracks and corrosion to ensure continuous provision of water and g...
