Description
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
