The mystery of the pyramids could be unveiled by a robot designed by Rob Richardson, an engineer at the University of Leeds.
According to sources from the New Scientist, this robot features a bendy camera with a capability of viewing around the edges. Egyptologists believe that the markings could be the craftsmanship of stone masons, and could indicate dates, names, or numbers.
The 'micro snake' camera placed deep within Egypt’s Great Pyramid of Giza discloses small red colored hieroglyphs on the floor of a small concealed chamber. Egyptologists estimate that if the markings are deciphered, it could reveal the secrets of why pyramids had secret chambers, doors, and tunnels within them. According to camera designer, Shuan Whitehead, a door that is a puzzling subject for the explorers, appears to be polished as seen through the bendy camera, which implies that it is an essential part of the building and not just a way to stop wastes from entering the chamber.
Previously also, robots have collected proof about the minute details of the pyramid. In 1993, a robot located a small door set that featured metal pins. This observation led to the speculation that the metal pins were either door handles or keys. Back in 2002, another robot captured a video of a small chamber after drilling through a stone block.
