Smart IoT-Enabled Bot for Gas Pipeline Leak Detection and Real-Time Video Monitoring

Abstract

This paper proposes a simple system for monitoring a water pipeline, detecting leaks and cracks, and initiating preparatory actions. The sensing element will continually measure the pressure in the pipeline. The sensed data is sent into a processor, which compares the measured value to the predicted hydraulic pressure. This comparison must be made on a constant basis to keep the proper pressure in the pipe. This real-world data (device result) is constantly updated on the cloud platform. Therefore, in research, a gasoline leakage detecting system was developed using a motion detection algorithm implemented on the Raspberry Pi control board. A webcam is used to collect real-time video. A technique running on the Raspberry Pi is used to efficiently execute the training and classifying tasks. In the event of a gas leak, emergency mail will be sent to security agents for more action. It is mounted above the motorized bot and equipped with an ultrasonic sensor.
