Abstract
—Research in In-Pipe Inspection Robots (IPIRs) has gained interest over recent years. Pipeline inspection robots bring reliability and repeatability to various pipeline inspection and maintenance processes. IPIRs are categorized based on their type of locomotion, and this study aims to analyze their advantages and limitations. Among all the IPIRs, the wheeled type IPIR has seen a tremendous change in its design, steering mechanism, and the way they use different wheels to pass through pipelines easily. This study compares and analyses an up-to-date review on wheeled type IPIRs in detail. This review helps the researchers to select the optimal wheeled type IPIR for inspection. The review concludes with the future research directions that the researchers need to focus on for the development of pipeline inspection robots. Developing an effective IPIR ensures human safety and improves the inspection process.
