This invention describes a device that maps its surroundings in 3D to figure out its exact location inside a building. Once localized, it identifies specific building features like pipes or vents by comparing their 3D shapes to a known map. The device then measures physical properties of these identified features, such as temperature or pressure, to detect if they are abnormal.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread availability of compact, affordable 3D sensors and the maturation of robust SLAM and deep learning-based object recognition. Modern hardware and AI could significantly simplify implementation and improve performance.
