The invention discloses a six-rotor flying
robot used for detecting an underground
utility tunnel comprising a
machine frame, a power driving unit, a sensor unit, an autonomous navigation unit, a camera shooting and illuminating unit, a
control unit and a storage unit. The invention uses the six-rotor flying
robot as a skeleton, and carries different types of sensors for detecting the interior environment,
fuel gas,
fuel oil, water pipes and heat networks in the underground
utility tunnel. Videos of inner walls, floors, various pipelines and attachments in the underground
utility tunnel are shot by the camera shooting and illuminating unit, and stored in the storage unit for later comprehensive analysis and
processing by means of computers after being pre-processed by the
control unit. On the one hand, the six-rotor flying
robot used for the detecting the underground utility tunnel is labor-saving and can be used for routine detection of the underground utility tunnel; on the other hand, the same can be used for detecting and sending back the information inside the underground utility tunnel in the case of disasters, so that following personnel can enter the underground utility tunnel to
handle the disasters and to make decisions for rescue. The six-rotor flying robot uses an autonomous navigation method by a combination of
laser radar and IMU, so as to overcome the limitation of no
GPS signals in
underground space.
