Abstract—This product has been designed to scan and inspect the flooring of a predefined space. Essentially, a camera at the tip of an arm mounted on a mobile base scans the environment as the robot moves. The robot’s components can be programmed to halt all motion upon noticing any discrepancies in its scanning, and to then take photographs of said discrepancies before continuing along its trajectory. The applications of such a device can range anywhere from a simple workplace janitorial overview to industrial aircraft jet fuel tanks’ safety inspections, wherein the robot can examine the tank for leaks, cracks, or corrosion.
Index Terms—Mobile collaborative robot.
