Created a robot that can assess the condition of bridges

Automation replaces human, and usually dangerous work.

This time the robots were helpful professionals working with the bridges, now they don’t need to climb to the top to find out all about the condition of the bridge, all the data will collect intelligent Autonomous mechanisms.

Robots for inspection of bridges was developed by a team of enthusiasts, under the leadership of Spencer Gibb, from the University of Nevada. They can identify breakdowns, errors in design and other abnormalities using a variety of sensors, including ground penetrating radar and electrical resistance sensors that will detect corrosion and cracks in concrete. All that will analyse the robot, you will see the operator, a relationship which will be implemented with the help of cameras onboard the robot.

To get wet this robot is not scary, as it is waterproof. Stability of the robot guarantee four wheels. The robot runs on batteries, on the one hand provides some simplicity of design, on the other hand the robot will need to constantly change the batteries.

In the near future, robots will take another three tests, the results robots has shown up this lift, as machine is able to more accurately determine problems in bridge construction rather than a person.
