Autonomous Construction Crack Vision-Based Repair Using an Aerial Platform and a Delta Manipulator
摘要
Autonomous inspections of civil and critical infrastructure and the ability to perform basic repair operations with drones may lead to increased safety. However, the development of autonomous solutions faces many challenges. To address some of the underlying challenges of autonomous construction repair we developed and present a custom-made aerial robotic platform. Equipped with computer vision for autonomous detection and localization of cracks, a delta manipulator, and a syringe-based cement extruder the presented solution is capable of finding, landing on top, and filling cracks in constructions under lab conditions.
