Abstract

In this paper, we describe a LIDAR-based autonomous navigation approach applied at tracked mobile robot and a software tool developed for managing the mobile robots’ outdoor radiation survey missions. A mission to do radiological survey around the scrap yard of lab premises has been considered as a concrete instance to build the system. Mission management tool is designed to plan autonomous radiation survey missions in affected areas. The robot carries radiation sensor packs suitable for the survey to record and transmit radiological measurements to the control centre. Additionally, the scheme implemented has provision to monitor the real-time progress of the survey mission and to switch between various autonomy levels built into the system.
