Nuclear facilities must routinely survey their infrastructure for radiation contamination. Generally, this is done by trained professionals, wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) that swipe potentially contaminated surfaces and test the wipes under detectors. This approach leaves personnel vulnerable to radiation exposure and is not comprehensive. Robots address these inadequacies, offering a cost-effective solution with negligible downtime. We present a Robot Radiation Survey System (RRSS): a heterogeneous robot team to perform comprehensive alpha/beta/gamma radiation surveys. The RRSS system members, core capabilities, and comprehensive survey plan are addresses in this paper.
