By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – According to news reporting originatin g from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx journalists, a patent application by the inve ntors Duerfeldt, Bryan R. (Houston, TX, US); George, Conner S. (Houston, TX, US) ; Liu, Dianna D. (Houston, TX, US); Wehlin, Karl Petter (Houston, TX, US), filed on June 4, 2024, was made available online on September 26, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Many existing approaches for inspecting pipes are only suited for use on bare pipes-that is, pipes lacking insulation or other coverings. For example, many sensors require direct contact with the surface of a pipe in orde r to detect structural issues and other anomalies of interest. Likewise, many ap proaches rely on the ability to visually inspect the surface of the pipe itself, such as direct visual inspection by a technician on-site or the inspection of i magery captured by a camera. Insulation and other coverings may have to be cut a way or removed in order to perform such inspection approaches, which can be time consuming, dangerous (especially when performed at heights), and cost prohibiti ve. Accordingly, there is a need for a way to inspect insulated pipes without da maging or removing the insulation.
