Plant Type: CANDU
A North American nuclear power plant needed a more accurate and efficient solution for radiation mapping and source term data analysis. The goal was to enhance work planning, improve pre-job briefings, and minimise radiation exposure to workers while ensuring compliance with radiation protection regulations.
The plant deployed our NV-Explore Gamma Imaging System on the Boston Dynamics Spot quadruped robot. This system, integrated with NV-Fusion software, enables the generation of detailed 3D point cloud maps with overlaid Gamma source term data.
Key capabilities include:
Post-processing capabilities through N Visage Fusion Lite software.
NV-Explore has been utilised for routine radiation scans and engineering projects during outages, providing real-time insights into radiation exposure and contamination levels.
Our NV-Explore system has successfully transformed radiation mapping at the plant by:
Generating precise 3D models with radiation dose heatmaps at waist height for enhanced work planning and ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) compliance.
By implementing NV-Explore, the nuclear power plant has significantly improved radiation safety, operational efficiency, and data-driven decision-making across its facility
