Could robots like this be sent into nuclear facilities to autonomously deal with toxic waste? That's the plan. Nick & Michal from Oxford Robotics Institute demonstrate & explain their automation of the familiar yellow robot 'spot.'
The project was the result of a collaboration between the Oxford Robotics Institute (particularly the DRS and GOALS groups) and Createc (createc.co.uk), and was supported by UKRI through the ISCF RAIN and ORCA Hubs, the AutoInspect project, and the EPSRC Programme Grant in Embodied Intelligence.
