Deploying CCTV Robotics for Subsurface Drainage and Sewer Inspection

Urban expansion and heavy municipal utility demands place continuous stress on underground gravity sewer networks and stormwater drainage channels. Over decades of operation, underground concrete and clay pipes experience structural cracking, joint displacement, chemical erosion from hydrogen sulfide gas, root intrusion, and heavy sediment accumulation. Left unaddressed, these subsurface pipe defects lead to sewage exfiltration, […]
