THE PROBLEM
Manual glovebox tasks restrict dexterity, increase fatigue, and elevate safety risk in nuclear and biomedical settings.
Standard robotic systems struggle with cluttered environments and dynamic tasks, and full automation remains impractical.
OUR SOLUTION
Our semi-autonomous teleoperation system blends human control and automated safety assistance to enable operators to manipulate tools and samples inside gloveboxes with improved precision, speed, and confidence.
FEATURES INCLUDE:
- Haptic teleoperation with force feedback
- Automated collision and obstacle avoidance
- Safety-filtered motion assistance
- Dual-arm support and task-specific guidance
WHY IT MATTERS
- Safer — Reduces the risk of accidents and contamination
- Faster — Shorter task times with guided assistance
- Less Workload — Operators retain control without excessive strain
- Flexible — Valuable in nuclear, biomedical, and pharmaceutical environments
HOW IT WORKS
- Operator control the robots using haptic interfaces
- System checks safety constraints in real time
- Guidance and corrections are applied
- Task is completed quickly and safely
