Design of robot system for radioactive source detection based on ROS

Abstract

In order to reduce radiation hazards, a mobile robot for detecting and grasping radioactive sources is designed. The robot is based on the ROS platform, uses the radioactive source detector to locate the radioactive source and moves to the radioactive source, and uses the mechanical gripper carried by the body to grab the corresponding radioactive source. In order to improve its stability and adaptability, a remote real-time control method is used to realize the motion capture of the detection robot. The robot operates the radioactive source, reducing the environmental pollution of the open-air radioactive source, and at the same time avoiding the radiation damage to the corresponding staff.
