Design and Implementation of Autonomous Robots for Crack Detection in Dam Walls: Analyzing Vision-Based Algorithms and Structural Health MonitoringBy Ravikant Nanwatkar, Vishwajeet Jangam, Prajyot Devkar, Shreyan Borawake, Hari Kulkarni
Abstract: AbstractThe maintenance of dam walls is critical to ensure structural integrity, safety, and efficient water management. Cracks and other structural deficiencies can lead to severe consequences if left undetected. Traditional inspection methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and often hazardous, necessitating the development of autonomous systems for effective monitoring. This study focuses on the design and implementation of autonomous robots equipped for crack detection in dam walls, with an emphasis on vision-based …
