Symetrica continues to expand deployment of its industry leading radnuc detection RIDs to autonomous robot mission systems. We have recently fielded our VeriFinder attached to robot dogs and trialled them at the Barksdale Air Force base in the U.S. This complimentary merger of RID and robot, supports mission critical work in hazardous environments and dangerous missions without risking airmen in the process. Tablets are used to remote control the robot dog via an app which teams can use to make the dog sit, stand, walk, run, bark and growl.
These capabilities were showcased to 50 countries at the CSCM World Congress in Croatia.
The VeriFinder demonstrated is designed to locate, identify, and characterise radiological and nuclear (RN) material including special nuclear materials.
