Abstract :
The development of advanced robotics in the nuclear industry has been accelerated by the CEC´s TELEMAN Programme. TELEMAN is a five year cost-shared research programme directed towards remote handling in hazardous and disordered nuclear environments. AEA Technology´s own telerobotics development includes products such as stereoscopic TV and nuclear engineered robots. The TELEMAN Programme objectives are described and AEA Technology´s contributions to this significant new Programme are summarized
