This study addresses the development of a robot for inspection of old bridges. By suspending the robot with a wire and controlling the wire length, the movement of the robot is realized. The robot mounts a high-definition camera and aims to detect cracks on the concrete surface of the bridge using this camera. An inspection method using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has been proposed. Compared to the method using an unmanned aerial vehicle, the wire suspended robot system has the advantage of insensitivity to wind and ability to carry heavy equipments, this makes it possible to install a high-definition camera and a cleaning function to find cracks that are difficult to detect due to dirt.
