Abstract: Crack inspection is an important task in the maintenance of pipe line and it is closely related to structural health of underground pipes. Currently it is done through a very manual procedure, experienced human monitors the whole structure visually and try to detect cracks on the pipe line structure and marks the location of crack. But this manual approach having some frailty issues as limited accuracy. Proposed research focuses on implementing a system having a robot, equipped with a camera to efficiently detect small leaks in plastic or in any type of pipes with complicated pipeline configurations of inner structure of the pipeline. We have proposed a novel method of pipes leakage detection. When there is any leakage or crack in the pipe in industries the sensors will detect the leakage. As the sensors will detect the corresponding signals will be shown in the phone with which the sensors will be connected through Bluetooth.
