Abstract
This paper reports the development and experimental evaluation of robotized system devised to perform two kinds of measurements inside a pipeline: the thickness of the internal wall painting layer and the internal radius. The thickness measurement allows the inspection of the painting layer quality and, by measuring several radii, it is possible to estimate that pipeline transversal section shape. The proposed scheme is shown to yield very satisfactory results on an actual pipeline.
