Improvement of Corrosion Detection Using Vision System for Pipeline Inspection

Nowadays, the utilization of cameras as an inspection tool has been increasing. The flexibility functions of camera fits to get different kind of information. This research is focusing on developing a robust visual inspection system for corrosion detection that is able to detect corrosion in any environment, and the corrosion detection will be using visual data as primary tools. A review on current pipeline inspection would give a brief detail on the improvement of the proposed inspection system. Furthermore, the inadequacies of the proposed visual corrosion detection are identified and discussed from the reviewing process on existing researches and analysis on preliminary data obtained. It is expected that the output of the proposed system will be a new method of corrosion detection and pioneer for the inspection system on robust environment.
