Pipeline robot is a mechanical, electrical and instrument integrated system that can walk automatically along the inside or outside of small pipelines, carry one or more sensors and operating machinery, and carry out a series of pipeline operations under the remote control of staff or the automatic control of computers. Specifically, pipeline robots have the following core features:
Definition and function
Definition: Pipeline robot is an intelligent system that integrates mechanical, electronic, instrument and other multidisciplinary technologies, which is specially used for inspection, maintenance and operation inside pipelines.
Function: By carrying sensors (such as cameras, lidar, infrared sensors, etc.) and operating machinery, the pipeline robot can obtain real-time image data and physical information inside the pipeline, monitor the running status of the pipeline in real time, and identify, locate and track existing problems.
technical characteristics
Automation and intelligence: Pipeline robots can autonomously complete various operations inside the pipeline under unmanned intervention or remote control, greatly improving work efficiency and safety.
High precision and efficiency: With high-definition cameras and advanced control technology, the pipeline robot can realize high-precision inspection and maintenance of the inside of the pipeline.
Strong adaptability: Pipeline robots can adapt to a variety of complex and harsh pipeline environments, including bending pipes, irregular pipes, etc., to ensure the smooth progress of operations.
Camera, as one of the core components of the pipeline robot, what requirements need to be met to meet the special environment and task requirements of pipeline inspection? SONY FCB-EV7100 was once a popular camera module for pipeline robots, can VRS-HD5101 replace it as the new king?
the basic requirements for the camera
1, compact body size: for the pipeline robot industry, it is necessary to show off in a small space, the body size requirements for cameras and other equipment are relatively strict, SONY FCB-EV7100 has a mini body size: 45.6×48.8× 78.0mm, weighing only 210g, has won the favor of the pipeline robot industry.
With a body size of 43(W) x 44(H) x 60.6(D) and a weight of only 112g, the VRS-HD5101 is more in line with the requirements of pipe robots than the SONY FCB-EV7100 in terms of weight and size.
2, high definition high resolution: the camera should have high definition high resolution, in order to be able to clearly capture the details of the inside of the pipeline, to provide accurate image data for detection.
The VRS-HD5101 uses a 1/3 “Panasonic CMOS sensor with 2.4 million effective pixels and an output resolution of 1920×1080, providing greater sharpness and richer colors for images and videos. Better capture of the details inside the pipe.
3, optical zoom ability: according to the diameter of the pipeline, irradiation object distance, the camera should support 10 times, 20 times or 30 times optical zoom, so that in the pipeline can not bypass obstacles, can shoot objects at a distance and magnify inspection.
VRS-HD5101 is the same as SONY FCB-EV7100. Also featuring 10x optical zoom lenses, coupled with autofocus, they are able to zoom in or out of the subject by adjusting the focal length of the lens without changing the physical position, resulting in a sharper image or wider field of view. For dynamic scenes or application scenarios that need to capture pictures quickly, the camera can automatically adjust the focus of the lens during the image capture process to keep the captured object clear.
4, automatic exposure and slow response function: In the monitoring area where the lighting conditions suddenly change, the camera should support automatic exposure and slow response function to ensure the stability and clarity of the image.
VRS-HD5101, automatic exposure and slow response functions are available, VRS-HD5101, it can automatically adapt to different light conditions, to provide a more convenient and stable shooting experience for the pipeline robot.
In summary, the requirements of pipeline robots for cameras are many, including body size, high-definition resolution, optical zoom capability, and automatic exposure and slow response functions. VRS-HD5101 can meet these requirements, jointly ensuring that the pipeline robot can obtain clear and accurate image data when carrying out pipeline inspection, and provide strong support for subsequent pipeline maintenance and repair work.
