Functions such as automated inspection and real-time monitoring have been installed in inspection robots. Essentially, these robots are capable of providing technical support of a high standard for the management of tunnels, thus, they are able to cut down the risks of tunnel operation, and additionally, raise the level of operation and management.
The value of the application of inspection robots for highway tunnel operations is mainly visible in the following points:
First of all, inspection robots are able to raise the standard of safety management in tunnels. Generally, the checking of tunnels through the use of human workforce is usually accompanied by a huge disadvantage- safety of workforce is at risk. Moreover, the efficiency and thoroughness of manual inspections are limited. Inspection robots, on the other hand, may run the same routine inspection and monitoring at any time and from any angle without the need for human intervention in the tunnel. While they are able to reduce the risks, they can also increase the efficiency of inspections, promptly identify potential safety hazards as well as detect the occurrence of safety issues in tunnel facilities and, on top of that, they can even give early warning and provide support in the handling process so as to ensure the safety of the tunnel.
Secondly, robots for inspection are equipped with features including autonomous navigation, intelligent identification, and remote monitoring. These devices are capable of performing automatic inspection of hardwares such as tunnel facilities, lighting equipment, ventilation equipment, drainage equipment, and fire-fighting equipment, As a result, they can rapidly and accurately get the data and information from inside the tunnel and at the same time, they can also deliver the real-time monitoring of the equipment operating condition and operating parameters. Thus, the time factor and coverage that are involved in traditional inspection are addressed on an ongoing basis, and in addition, this helps the management staff to be able to keep abreast of the condition of the facilities, recognize the problems in advance, and at the same time, take the corresponding actions, which in turn results in efficiency in managing the tunnel's operation and dealing with unexpected situations bolster.
Thirdly, through the processing and examination of the data from surveys, along with the establishment of a full record of the surveys and operations, those records can become a data source for the departments of tunnel operation and management and a scientific basis for decision-making. Through the deployment of inspection robots, the real-time monitoring and management of the operational data and information of tunnel facilities are achieved, which thus, raises the level of informatization of tunnel operation and management.
