Abstract
Piping inspection technology that does not require excavation is needed from economic and efficiency perspective. SPRING was developed as a new type of inspection robot which could meet this demand, however, several revisions are necessary in order to make the device more practical. In this paper, these revisions are discussed along with details on the development of a simulation model.
