The cracks of the buttresses of the bridges are popular. The existence of the cracks threaten the safety of the vehicles. Therefore, to inspect the cracks is important. In Taiwan, the method for prospecting the fissures is relied on traditional tests by scaffolding and climbing down by human. Scaffolding wastes a lot of time, reduces the efficiency and the mobility. Don't ignore the danger to life caused by scaffolding. As mentioned above, the theme presents the robot driven by the HydraulicSystem、Pneumatic System and Inductive Motors. The controller based on the motivations of the operators is distributed into the Manual and Automatic operations. During the Manual operation, the operator can drive main elements to extend, to shorten and to rotate among the working space. During the Automatic operation, the operator inputs the camera's position command. The PC-Based Controller calculates the dynamics of the main elements automaticallyand drives them to the desired position. Safely inspecting the cracks at lower cost, lower probability , higher mobility and higher efficient is the advantage of the automatic robot.
