CIMITEC researchers, led by Jordi Bonache, have collaborated with the company Chatu Tech to develop a pipeline detection system that reduces the time and costs of a construction work.
The system, called Trenchip, allows you to mark, accurately locate and record information about specific points in trenches and underground conduits. Data about your infrastructures is sent and processed in the cloud, so it can be viewed and kept updated information about your infrastructures from anywhere using an application and a Geographic Information System in the cloud. This allows you to have control at all times over the information linked to the sensors and can make decisions based on updated data, as well as ensure the security of information on your infrastructure.
