Autonomous Radiation Detection UGV for Post-Accident Environmental Assessment

O. Nusrat, E. Waller (Ontario Tech University, Canada)


Following a potential nuclear accident scenario, it is imperative that the effects on the surrounding environment are safely and promptly assessed. The development of devices that can provide quick, accurate estimates of radioactivity following such scenarios is an active area of research in the field of nuclear safety and radiation protection. We present the development of a novel autonomous robotic platform, equipped with radiation detection, mapping, air sampling, and on-board data analysis capabilities to assess and mitigate the effects of potential severe accidents in nuclear power plants and the surrounding environment, as well as to reduce human exposure to radiation. In addition, the current development of a unifying software is presented.

 

事故後の環境アセスメントのための自律放射線検出UGV

O. Nusrat, E. Waller (Ontario Tech University, Canada)


潜在的な原子力事故シナリオ発生後、周辺環境への影響を安全かつ迅速に評価することが不可欠である。原子力安全と放射線防護の分野では、そうしたシナリオの発生後に放射能を迅速かつ正確に評価できる装置の開発が研究の盛んな分野となっている。我々は、原子力発電所及びその周辺環境における潜在的なシビアアクシデントの影響を評価し、軽減するとともに、人間の放射線被ばくを低減するために、放射線検知,マッピング,空気サンプリング,オンボードデータ解析などの能力を備えた新しい自律型ロボットプラットフォームの開発について紹介する。さらに、統一ソフトウェアの現在の進展についても紹介する。
