Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine the most recent tunnel scanning systems to obtain insights for the development of non-contact mobile inspection system. Tunnel scanning systems are mostly being developed by adapting two main technologies, namely laser scanning and image scanning systems. Laser scanning system has the advantage of accurately recreating the geometric characteristics of tunnel linings from point cloud. On the other hand, image scanning system employs computer vision to effortlessly identify damage, such as fine cracks and leaks on the tunnel lining surface. The analysis suggests that image scanning system is more suitable for detecting damage on tunnel linings. A camera-based tunnel scanning system under development should include components such as lighting, data storage, power supply, and image-capturing controller synchronized with vehicle speed.

본 논문의 목적은 국내외 터널 스캐닝 시스템들을 분석하여 비접촉 이동식 상태점검 장비 개발에 대한 시사점을 도출하기 위한 것이다. 국내외 터널 스캐닝 시스템은 레이저 스캔과 이미지 스캔의 두 가지 기술로 개발되고 있다. 레이저 스캐닝 장비는 포인트 클라우드로부터 터널 라이닝의 기하하적 특성을 재현하는데 장점이 있다. 이미지 스캐닝 장비는 컴퓨터 비전을 활용하여 터널 라이닝 표면의 미세한 균열, 누수 등 손상 검출이 용이하다. 터널 라이닝의 손상 검출을 위해서는 이미지 스캐닝 장비가 더 적합할 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 개발 예정인 카메라 기반의 터널 스캐닝 시스템은 조명, 저장장치, 전원 공급 장치 및 차량 주행 속도 동기화 제어 장치로 구성되어야 할 것이다.
