Abstract

The exploration of hazardous environments, such as deep-sea depths, radioactive zones, or battlefield scenarios, poses significant challenges to human safety and well-being. Robotics and automation have emerged as crucial technologies in overcoming these obstacles, providing efficient and reliable solutions for data collection and environmental monitoring. This paper delves into the advancements in robotics and automation that are specifically designed for hazardous environment exploration. It discusses the current state of the art in robotic systems, focusing on their capabilities, limitations, and the challenges in developing robust and adaptable robots. Additionally, the paper explores the integration of artificial intelligence and sensor technologies to enhance the decision-making and autonomy of these robots. The discussion highlights the importance of collaboration between engineers, scientists, and end-users in designing effective and reliable robotic systems for hazardous environment exploration.
