Abstract: A system for performing multiple operations on one or more weld joints of a pipe string includes a robotic scanning device that is configured to controllably travel inside of the pipe string and detect, scan and uniquely identify each weld joint within the pipe string. The system further includes a plurality of secondary robotic devices that are each configured to controllably travel inside of the pipe string and perform one or more specific operations on the one or more weld joints of the pipe string. The robotic scanning device includes a processor that is configured to generate a work plan for the plurality of secondary robotic devices. The robotic scanning device transmits work plan commands to each of the plurality of secondary robotic devices and receive transmissions from the plurality of secondary robotic devices.

Abstract: A mobile or wearable computing device comprises a camera, a processor coupled to the camera and configured with computer-executable instructions that cause the processor to activate the camera to capture an image and process the image so as to identify measurement data being displayed on an analog measurement instrument which is within the image captured by the camera, wherein the processing includes: identifying a type of the analog measurement instrument, identifying features of the analog measurement instrument, extract the measurement data displayed on the analog instrument based on the identified type and features of the analog instrument measurement, convert the extracted data into converted digital information, and obtain supplemental information from a database related to the analog instrument. The device also includes a display coupled to the processor upon which the digital information and supplemental information is displayed to a wearer of the smart glasses.
