Abstract

This paper provides an updated summary of the research being conducted by the University of Manchester Robotics group (UoM Robotics) [1] at the University of Manchester, UK, in the area of remote characterization through the use of robotic systems. The research is in support of the decommissioning plan for the Sellafield nuclear site in west Cumbria, UK and Fukushima Diiachi, Japan. UoM Robotics works in collaboration with a number of companies and research institutes including Sellafield Ltd, the National Nuclear Laboratory, Universities of Lancaster, Birmingham, Bristol Robotics Laboratory, Italian Institute of Technology and the National Maritime Research Institute in Japan. The progress of a number of novel mobile robotic platforms being developed at the University of Manchester is presented in this poster presentation. Also presented is the on-going work on the remote sensing technologies and techniques which will be deployed on the robotic platforms.
