ABSTRACT:
A method for operating a mobile pipe inspection device includes a camera head that can be pivoted about two axes that lie at right angles to one another. The pivoting movements of the camera head are remotely controlled by motors and at least one pivoting movement is measured by a rotational angle sensor, whose measurement signal can be displayed and evaluated on a monitor. An improved evaluation and both the quantitative and qualitative documentation of the inspection result. To achieve this, two sets of image information are generated, one set containing image information of the entire pipe surface and the second set containing information about the details of the pipe surface, both sets of information being automatically assigned to one another at least with respect to the location in the pipe section and the angular position.
