What is a Control Room?

A central area from where remote technology can be controlled and monitored with integrated input and output such as joysticks, master arm, visual feedback, audio, indicators.

Applications

• Training of operators
• Perform operations associated technology such as remote handling (link)
• Validating maintenance plans
• When inaccessible places must be accessible for inspection and maintenance
• If large and heavy parts must be moved
• Navigation for example underwater robots

Application areas

• Remote Handling Study Centre, Differ

Benefits

• Dissemination of technology in different ways
• Effective training of operators, enabling them to work faster and more secure
• Shorter maintenance cycle
• Reliability of maintenance is increased
• Security on feasibility of displacement (geometric, not necessarily mechanical)
• Accessibility is increased
• Basis for volautomatisering in a dynamic situation
