Mobile robot inspection of building plenum spaces via vision-based multi-sensor fault detection

G. Lou, S. Liu, Y. Shen, W. Y. Wong, Y. Lu, M. Duan

Overview

A mobile robotic inspection method combines semantic segmentation and object tracking with geometric and thermal features. Tests on data collected from building plenum spaces evaluate detection robustness under occlusion, sensor noise, and environmental variation.
