OBJECTIVE

 This project is mainly implemented for industrial applications for

detecting the damages/cracks inside the pipes that cannot be detected
by human beings.

The robotic system described here is manually reconfigurable,

heterogeneous and has a chain configuration.
ABSTRACT
 KROTO is a Greek word which means’ to crack’.

 The interior of the pipe has a very high temperature, high pressure and
contains toxic gases.

 So the cracks in the pipe are detected and the condition of the pipe is
estimated with the help of a robot that has a camera, temperature
sensor, pressure sensor.

This data from all the high precision sensors will be transmitted using
ZIGBEE protocol from the robot to the control station.
EXISTING SYSTEM

In certain industries, there is a mandatory requirement to maintain

crack free pipes to avoid leakages.
The workers use to dismantle the pipes and it becomes mandatory for
them to dig the ground if necessary to check the crack.
In few chemical industries we have to maintain constant temperature
pressure.
People were using some risky operations to keep the system constant.
PROPOSED SYSTEM

• To overcome the above situations, we are implementing a robot that

have a camera, temperature sensor, pressure sensor which is used to
detect the crack and conditions inside the pipe.
