Inflatable robotics for long-range inspection
Is this your challenge ? When it comes to gather information for decommissioning or as part of scheduled inspections monitoring as always relied heavily on human resources. Nowadays, either for safety reason (dose uptake) or for better use of resources, some of these tasks can be delegated to small robotic land-based platforms.These multi skilled tools
Future data collection in nuclear environments
Is this your challenge ? Nuclear power plants, reprocessing facilities and waste repositories often present areas that preclude human access or operations that are repetitive or time-consuming. Traditional survey methods do have limitations in these environments and optimising resources can be difficult. Finding better ways to monitor plant conditions, impro
Next generation quality assurance of waste packages
Is this your challenge ? A major challenge for the global nuclear industry is to process and safely store legacy, current and future nuclear waste. That include packaged waste of different nature, some of which aligned for long-term geological disposal. One of the most complex challenges for the industry is to characterise the contents of […]
Portable digital imaging system
Is this your challenge ? Today, LIDAR and point clouds are common practices across the industry. They are brilliant tools to cut down costs, improve knowledge management and optimise maintenance. Moreover, it is the only way to get accurate data of physical assets. Although in the medium / long term, these technologies are bringing great […]

Nowadays, either for safety reason (dose uptake) or for better use of resources, some of these tasks can be delegated to small robotic land-based platforms.These multi skilled tools
Digital platform for radwaste management
Is this your challenge ? The process of Decommissioning and DIsmantling increasingly demands methods for a full traceability of waste material to improve quality management and operational safety. Managing waste requires the acquisition and the storage of a huge amount of data: list of isotopes, dose rate, shape, visual description, origin, etc. In addition,
Fast and reliable mobile mapping system
As of 2021, the average age of the nuclear power plants in the world is 39 years old. Considering that during their lifespan, nuclear sites have seen many modifications for maintenance and have had a wide number of rooms hard to access due to radiation or spatial constraints, a clear layout of an old site […]
3D radiation characterisation
Is this your challenge ? From maintenance to decommissioning strategy, activities on nuclear sites are regularly constrained by radiation fields, often due to complex source term conditions. Typically, radiation protection technicians are performing manual surveys of the conditions, and then producing (often hand sketch) dose & contamination survey maps.
Ultrasound inspection imaging camera
Is this your challenge ? Pressure difference is critical in the nuclear industry. Either from one cell to another to avoid spreading any airborne contamination or in gloveboxes to protect field operators. In terms of operations, a wide range of equipment also requires pressurised air or inert gas to operate. These assets tend to run […]
Safe & quick radiation mapping at height
Is this your challenge ? Caracterisation is essential before any operation in a nuclear environment. Mapping activity levels are an essential input for many models: project planning, waste management, costs, dosimetry. For strategic decision but also, and most importantly, for safety reasons. Who would like to send their coworkers in a cell without knowing t
