Real-Time Video Management for Gas Pipeline Breakage Detection Robot Using IoT

This paper proposes an Internet of Things (IoT) and a Raspberry Pi-based robot to detect gas pipeline breaks in real-time. A gas sensor, web camera, Wi-Fi connection, cloud server, internet interface, ultrasonic sensors, and motors improve pipeline inspection efficiency and accuracy. The robot checks pipeline gas levels using its gas sensor. The sensor provides real-time data to the Raspberry Pi when it detects an unusual gas concentration. The web camera captures the live video of the pipeline. Using cloud server computer vision, the Raspberry Pi analyses gas sensor data and video feed. The processed footage is sent to a cloud server over Wi-Fi for real-time video monitoring and analysis. The cloud server's internet interface shows the live video stream and warns consumers of pipeline breaks. Advanced video analytics methods identify leaks, breaks, and abnormal flow patterns in the video stream. Ultrasonic sensors on the robot improve detecting accuracy. These sensors assess the distance between the robot and the pipeline for exact localization and positioning during the inspection. The robot's motors allow it to navigate the pipeline for detailed evaluation automatically. The system informs necessary people through the webpage interface in the case of a pipeline breakage. This allows quick reaction and avoidance of gas leaks and pipeline damage concerns. It efficiently detects gas pipeline breaks in real-time. The technology enhances operating efficiency, lowers human inspection hazards, and assures gas infrastructure integrity and safety. This IoT-based technology for real-time surveillance and detection of gas pipeline breakages significantly improves pipeline inspection.
