Talk: Historically, automation in general and robotics in particular, are considered uninvited regimes to interact with, for an extremely conservative nuclear industry. However, unavoidable nature of human error presence and rare but disastrous occurrence of nuclear accidents like Fukushima, have attracted the much needed attention of designers and emergency planners of nuclear and allied facilities.
