A robotic system for concrete repair preparation.

The widespread deterioration of reinforced concrete structures and the associated need for inspection and repair are reviewed. Towards this end, robotic handling of a NDT probe and blasting tool is investigated. A single-pass method for the detection of rebars is presented that takes into account th...
