Last April, Fukushima nuclear reactor operator , Japan, Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO), bringing United States production of two robots iRobot Warrior and the named Packbot. The aim, among other things, help drain the water for cooling and measuring the radiation that exist around the reactors.
Four months after the Fukushima nuclear crisis caused by the earthquake and tsunami last March, TEPCO also have other programs. The company intends to clean up radiation around the reactor Fukushima, again with the help of robots.
Improvisation is done by integrating robotic vacuum cleaners and systems in robots Warrior supporters who have previously been used. In this way, exposure to radiation that threaten workers who are doing the repair is reduced and the accumulation of sand sucked.
Radiation cleanup has been started since July 1. Does this program work? So far there has been no relevant information, so just wait. The video below shows how Warrior to clean up radiation and sand.
