A groundbreaking milestone has been achieved in the world of fusion energy research. For the very first time, an autonomous robot has been deployed and utilized to conduct an internal inspection on a fusion energy facility.
“The project aimed to validate the reliability of autonomous robotic technology and instill trust and confidence in their use for safe and efficient inspections in fusion facilities over extended periods,” explained Dr. Robert Skilton, Head of Research at UKAEA’s Remote Applications in Challenging Environments division.
By demonstrating that an autonomous robot can carry out essential inspections without direct human intervention, the UKAEA and ORI have showcased a safer, more cost-effective alternative for fusion plant maintenance.quadruped, was controlled by ORI’s autonomy platform “AutoInspect.” The robot was tasked with mapping the facility, collecting sensor readings, and navigating around obstacles and personnel involved in the ongoing decommissioning process.
