The recent advances in digital technologies have brought about new opportunities for innovations in robotics and remote systems. In particular, robotics is transforming by way of using digital twin techniques with integration of a multitude of emerging digital technologies such as advanced sensors, telerobotics, modeling and simulation, virtual-/augmented-reality, and human-robot interface under networked environment and big data. Digital transformation of robotics has also democratized the development of robotic applications at a rapid pace. The objective of this panel session is to bring together the opinion leaders in broad sectors of the nuclear industry to identify the potential R&D direction to meet the industry's emerging needs.
