description Inspection robots, which improve hazard identification and enhance safety management, play a vital role in the examination of high-risk environments in many fields, such as power distribution, petrochemical, and new energy battery factories. Currently, the position precision of the robots is a major barrier to their broad application. Exact kinematic model and control system of the robots is required to improve their location accuracy during movement on the unstructured surfaces. By a virtual engine and digital twins, this study put forward a visualization monitoring and control system framework which can address the difficulties in the intelligent factories while managing a variety of data sources, such as virtual–real integration, real-time feedback, and other issues. To develop a more realistic dynamic model for the robots, we presented a neural-network-based compensation technique for the nonlinear dynamic model parameters of outdoor mobile robots. A physical prototype was applied in the experiments, and the results showed that the system is capable of controlling and monitoring outdoor mobile robots online with good visualization effects and high real-time performance. By boosting the positional accuracy of robots by 18% when navigating obstacles, the proposed precise kinematic model can increase the inspection efficiency of robots. The visualization monitoring and control system enables visual, digital, multi-method, and complete real-time inspections in high-risk factories, such as new energy battery factories, to ensure the safe and stable operations.
