Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
RAICo (The Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Collaboration) is looking to develop remote sample collection (swabbing) capabilities based around the Boston Dynamics Spot quadruped robot, its arm, and bespoke tooling which fits the arm gripper. The aim is to develop and trial a mature mixed-autonomy remote contamination assessment capability, enabling routine Health Physics monitoring in hazardous environments without human entry.
