Workshop for robotic and autonomous technologies in accelerator facilities

Wednesday 6 Feb 2019, 08:00 → 18:00 US/Central

Big Room, Building 327 (formerly known as CDF Auditorium)

Mayling Wong-Squires (Fermilab), Patrick Hurh (FNAL)

Fermilab proposes to build a MW-class high energy beam facility for the intensity frontier experiments. We recognize that robotic and autonomous technologies are a key element to successfully operate accelerator machines under severe radioactive environments. We plan to host a workshop at Fermilab to discern state-of-the-art robotic and autonomous technologies in accelerator facilities. We set the workshop charge as follows: - To understand the potential applications of robotic and autonomous devices in the operations and maintenance of the accelerator that leads to increased efficiency of work and safety of personnel - To learn of existing technologies that can be applied right away - To identify potential areas of long-term collaboration with universities, other national laboratories, and industry
