This Cooperative Agreement award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program, will support the development of a fully autonomous, untethered robotic system capable of long-duration inspection within pressurized drinking water pipelines. The $1,555,000 project, with a performance period from August 2025 to July 2028, aims to create a robotic inspection method that can move through water mains without requiring shutdowns or excavation. The robotic system will collect sensor data, including video and location information, to help identify leaks, damage, and areas at risk of failure in public water infrastructure. This work is expected to assist public utilities in planning repairs more efficiently, reducing water loss, and extending the lifespan of existing infrastructure, thereby contributing to national efforts to modernize aging public works and improve the resilience and sustainability of drinking water systems.
