New robot to be used at Fukushima complex

CHIBA, Japan - Nuclear disaster minister Goshi Hosono (2nd from L) on Aug. 17, 2012, at the Chiba Institute of Technology in Chiba Prefecture, remotely controls "Rosemary," a new type of robot expected to be used in the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant's radiation-contaminated reactor buildings from September 2012. The robot can transport much heavier objects than its predecessor "Quince," used at the Tokyo Electric Power Co. complex since June 2011 to check conditions in the reactor buildings and to capture images, according to the institute.

New robot for work at Fukushima complex

CHIBA, Japan - The Chiba Institute of Technology unveils July 12, 2012, a state-of-the-art robot designed to perform tasks inside the highly contaminated reactor buildings at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, possibly from August, at the school in Narashino, Chiba Prefecture. Nicknamed "Rosemary," the robot dedicated for work at nuclear plants can transport much heavier objects than its predecessor robot "Quince" that was designed to assist in disaster control and has been used at the Tokyo Electric Power Co. complex since June 2011 to check inside the reactor buildings and take photographs, the school said.

Robot in Fukushima operation

CHIBA, Japan - A robot ''Quince' is loaded onto a truck at Chiba Institute of Technology in Narashino, Chiba Prefecture, on June 20, 2011. The robot jointly developed by Chiba Institute of Technology, Tohoku University and other institutions was being sent to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Fukushima Prefecture. Quince is capable of operating in places where rubble is scattered and is believed to be able to measure levels of radiation inside buildings and depths of contaminated water, as well as obtain samples of such water, as it can climb wet and slippery steps.
