Abstract
In this paper, we present a radiation detector module that can be seamlessly integrated with Robot Operating System (ROS) to enable robots to perform radiation measurements in hazardous environments. The module is designed with a detector PCB and connectors that are compatible with an Arduino shield. The Arduino firmware is programmed with a counter-timer algorithm and publishes data to the ROS environment, allowing for easy visualization of the data in a 2D occupancy map. Our experimental results demonstrate the module’s effectiveness in inspecting and reconstructing the robot’s path during operations. This paper provides a valuable contribution to the field of robotics by enabling robots to perform radiation measurements safely and accurately in dangerous environments.
