barrel distortion target, calibrator target, AC adapter, camera skid assembly 8"- 30" (203 mm - 762 mm), skid plate
assemblies for 36" (914 mm) and 42" (1067 mm), skid adapter plate, and hardware case.
THE SOFTWARE:
Manual Measurements - Precise measurements can be taken from a single frame captured from the prerecorded or
live video. This includes pipe size verification, size of laterals, water levels, holes, and off-set joints. The captured
frame, with its measurement data, can then be stored as a JPEG or BMP file. Manual measurements can be performed
on the captured digital profile to an accuracy of 1mm*.
AUTOMATED ANALYSIS
The software uses machine vision. Machine vision is used to find the video image of the laser profile (red laser line).
Each frame of the inspection video is analyzed to build a digital profile of the pipe. From this profile, the Laser Profiler
built-in functions display the following:
·
Ovality - The Ovality function calculates the "q" (as per ASTM F 1216, the internationally recognized standard for
CIPP rehabilitation).
·
Capacity - The Capacity (X-sectional Area) function calculates the cross-sectional area for each profile and
normalizes the results against the expected internal pipe area.
·
Delta - The Delta calculation finds the maximum and minimum pipe radius for each profile.
THE LASER PROFILER 3D DEVELOPMENTS:
3D Modeling- Using the digital profile, the Laser Profiler creates a fully interactive 3D model of the pipe. This allows
the user to navigate through the selected pipe within its local environment, thereby providing a new perspective to
traditional CCTV inspections.
