Controlling a robot to overcome a nuclear problem like gaming.
A British technology company has sent 6 robots controlled by handhelds such as the Fukushima game console to help solve the nuclear problem.
QinetiQ North America is a manufacturer of unmanned military equipment used in the military and emergency response.
In order to shorten the training time for robot workers at the crashed nuclear plant, QinetiQ develops a robot controller with an Xbox console instead of a laptop keyboard.
JD Crouch, president of QinetiQ North America Technology Solutions, said the Xbox was both cheap and easy to use, helping to speed up the troubleshooting process thanks to the information gathered on the robot screen.

QinetiQ sent to Japan Robotic Appliqué Kits , which can convert a 1.5 tonne Bobcat into unmanned vehicles with a 15-minute installation time. This system allows remote control of all 70 bobcat attachments such as shovels, buckets, clamps, and tools for breaking through walls, doors, etc.
Robotic Appliqué Kits include cameras, night vision devices, infrared sketches, radar equipment. Bobcat vehicles can be driven from a distance of one mile to make way for smaller robots.
QinetiQ also sends a pair of TALON robots that integrate explosive, radioactive, biological and chemical weapons. This 50kg robot can watch the night, feel the sound and run as fast as humans.
TALON can also be operated from a distance of one kilometer, which is used to pull the faucet to the destroyed reactors.
The Dragon Runner robot , the smallest of all three robots, is used as an "eye" in inaccessible areas. Dragon Runner is equipped with infrared camera and sound sensor. It can access the concrete ditch around the 2nd reactor in Fukushima, where a crack is found.
