Expanding the telecom network needs either adding new infrastructure or reusing old ones, as well as the network will need regular maintenance. Reusing old infrastructure could be tempting to save up the cost and time installing new infrastrcutre could use. However surveying and adding new cables to the old infrastructure can face some obstacles including old cables twisting over each other, dust and silt congestions or even collapses from external factors. Through developing a continuum snake robot attached to the end of a standard cabling rod many of the problems facing surveying and reusing old infrastructure could be solved. The continuum robot can be used to manuever around preexisting cables creating a path for new cables to be installed. It can be supplied with camera for inspection as well as water jets that can be used to remove any blockage. The project deals with designing, manufacturing and controlling such robots to over come challenges around surveying, maintaining and deploying telecoms

扩大电信网络需要增加新的基础设施或重用旧的基础设施，网络也需要定期维护。重复使用旧的基础设施可以节省安装新基础设施的成本和时间。然而，在旧的基础设施上测量和添加新的电缆可能会面临一些障碍，包括旧电缆相互缠绕，灰尘和淤泥堆积，甚至因外部因素而倒塌。通过开发一种连接到标准电缆杆末端的连续蛇形机器人，可以解决测量和重新使用旧基础设施所面临的许多问题。连续体机器人可用于围绕现有电缆进行操作，为新电缆的安装创建路径。它可以提供用于检查的摄像头以及可用于清除任何堵塞的喷水器。该项目涉及设计，制造和控制此类机器人，以克服测量，维护和部署电信方面的挑战
