    摘要: Devices and methods for streamlining the completion of work functions within a lateral pipe connected to a main pipe. A variety of different lateral devices may be used to aid in the process of relining the main or lateral pipe. A lateral location device is inserted into the lateral pipe prior to relining of the main pipe and is subsequently used to aid in the conventional cutting of the main-lateral interface. A lateral cutting device actually performs the main-lateral cutting process from within the lateral or from within the main. A lateral inspection device crawls up the lateral for inspection via camera. A lateral relining device aids in the placement of a liner used to reline the lateral pipe. Each of these interchangeable work functions may be optional performed by one or more lateral devices, often carried and inserted by a delivery device.

    摘要: An embodiment provides a method of controlling a pipe inspection robot, including: detecting, from a headset, brain activity of a user wearing the headset; binning the brain activity of the user into one of a plurality of different bins; the binning comprising accumulating brain activity values for a period of time to establish a brain activity value for the period of time; determining, using the brain activity value, if a threshold level of brain activity has accumulated over the period of time; after the threshold level has been accumulated, identifying a control action to be sent to the pipe inspection robot based on the brain activity value; and controlling the movement of the pipe inspection robot using a control signal associated with the control action. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: One aspect provides a method, including: storing an infrastructure project summary report with one or more other infrastructure project reports pooled in a database of project summary reports; the infrastructure project report being prepared via accessing fluid conveyance infrastructure summary data describing a condition of a fluid conveyance infrastructure segment; and using a processor of an electronic device to match the infrastructure project summary report with one or more other infrastructure project reports pooled in the database of project summary reports. Other aspects are described and claimed.
