Carnegie Mellon University proposes to develop, demonstrate, and infuse a leap of sensing, robotics, spatial positioning and visualization capability into underwater nuclear operations relevant to DOE environmental management. The program will develop and demonstrate a prototype robotic system to maneuver in a water-filled basin, obtain high-resolution color video, perform simultaneous localization and mapping, map radiation, NDE basin structure, and integrate/correlate this data for analysis, visualization and computer simulation.
