The project aims to create a robotic system called SAMI (Severe Accident Mobile Investigator) that can assist during power plant accident scenarios. The system includes an upgraded quadcopter drone that collects temperature, video and other sensor data. A base station charges the drone, stores data, and communicates with a remote control station via fiber optic cable. The base station design is complete and future work includes improving the drone's object avoidance capabilities and moving electronics to circuit boards. The system is intended to provide situational information to operators during beyond-design-basis events.
