CERNbot, a robot intervention

From the creator

CERNbot is a novel robotics platform, which can be customized according to the needs. The ATRAP experiment compares hydrogen atoms with their antimatter equivalents: antihydrogen atoms. As the radioactive source of the experiment decays after about two and a half years, ATRAP physicists need a new source every few years. They will then try to replace the source with the robot, in order to avoid exposition to radiation.
