In this work, a prototype robotic system is proposed to avoid direct exposure of responders and permit remote detection of CBRN agents.

Abstract
In this work, a prototype robotic system is proposed to avoid direct exposure of responders and permit remote detection of CBRN agents. The system, is named by the acronym RoSyDCBRN (Robotised System to Detect CBRN agents), basically consists of two functional areas which interact and communicate with each other; a mobile system (robot) and a remote station. Suitable first alarm, identification, and identification and first alarm CBRN detectors are chosen for the robot and remote station. In addition, suitable meteorological detectors are chosen to obtain the environmental parameters that are necessary to launch simulation with the predictive software (such as NBC-Analysis) in order to provide safe routes for the responders and the population. The conceptual work scheme of the robot is divided into three phases; Phase 1: Launch of the robot; Phase 2: Detection and data transmission; Phase 3: Robot returns and sample analysis in the laboratory. On the whole, the prototype integrates into a single architecture all the components that at present, in the case of CBRN events, operate separately or merged partially, but not totally cooperating with a high degree of automation as in the proposed system.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
