SIMAN V & V

该项目由英国中小企业i3D Robotics领导，建立在之前的SIMAN（智能成像核）概念验证演示器的基础上，该演示器旨在为手套箱和核机器人操作生产一种能够承受低水平辐射环境的新型系统。开展的工作包括：与机器人系统的接口，以允许手套箱退役;开发机器学习算法，用于危险物体检测和3D输出，用于将使用远程操作的新一代手套箱。这个新的验证和确认项目"SIMAN V & V"将生产和演示SIMAN系统的中间水平、耐辐射版本，进一步推进原始设计概念。例如自动退役以及废物分类和隔离，允许更多的利益相关者演示和参与替代跨部门应用，具有挑战性的环境。该机器人数字化技术旨在确保人类工人的安全，在COVID-19大流行之后，现在需要类似技术来保持可持续性的一系列行业中具有广泛的应用。

Led by i3D Robotics, a UK SME, this project builds on the previous SIMAN (Smart IMAging for Nuclear) proof of concept demonstrator which aims to produce a novel system for glovebox and nuclear robotic operations capable of withstanding low level, radiation environments. Work undertaken includes; the interfacing with robotics systems to allow for glovebox decommissioning; developing machine learning algorithms for hazardous object detection and 3D output for a new generation of gloveboxes that will use tele-operations. This new verification and validation project, "SIMAN V&V" will produce and demonstrate an intermediate level, radiation tolerant version of the SIMAN system furthering the original design concept.Qualification of the system for use in other areas of the nuclear sector, such as autonomous decommissioning and sort and segregation of waste allows for greater stakeholder demonstrations and engagement in alternative cross sector applications sharing extreme and challenging environments. Designed to keep human workers safe, the robotic, digitised technology produced has wide reaching applications within a range of industries which now require similar technologies to maintain sustainability in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
