Imagine having to wear one of these suits to work every day. These are designed to protect to people cleaning up hazardous nuclear waste. Bulky, claustrophobic and they steam up easily! Robots can take #HumansOutOfHarm #NCNR #NuclearRobots #SmartRobots

British scientists from the @NCNRobotics have used fixed-wing #drones to create radiation maps of the Red Forest, one of the most contaminated areas near the Chernobyl #nuclear site: neimagazine.com/news/newsdrone…

The UK alone has 4.9million tonnes of legacy nuclear waste to dispose of – enough to fill Wembley Stadium.

Our team from @BristolUni recently conducted the world's first drone survey over #Chernobyl and the Fed Forest. This is one of their flight maps. Read the full story: bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Each of our 10 partner universities run a range of outreach programmes for children, so do look at their websites and they always welcome emailed inquiries directly #TwinklTeach

So many interesting robotic facts in our #Twinklteach with @UKRobotics
English
The future sits in the next generation's hands to show us what they need. Once washing machines and iPhones seemed inconceivable and now it's inconceivable to live without them #TwinklTeach

@twinklresources Robotics technology is also going to become more and more common in our daily lives - whether at work, at home, or in public spaces - and it's important that students have the opportunity to learn about what the future holds #TwinklTeach
English
Not only dangerous jobs but also repetitive and physically demanding roles can be done with humans controlling robots in a nice safe environment - perhaps while drinking a cup of tea 😀 #TwinklTeach

@twinklresources @UKRobotics Robotics is also important to enable us to pass on those dangerous jobs to a machine that can do the work instead #TwinklTeach
English
Robotics is important because it allows us to safely explore new extreme environments without risk to human life and expand human knowledge in ways we could not previously have imagined #TwinklTeach

Have you heard of Robotics week? Quick- join in our #Twinklteach with @UKRobotics
English
We are currently developing novel sensors to discover the world and create immersive model 3D representations that people can interact with #TwinklTeach

@mattn123 @UKRobotics @twinklresources Good effort. 👍How about some sensors to make sure your robot doesn’t disappear off the edge - a mistake I have made several times so far! Still getting used to the App!#TwinklTeach
English
We definitely agree and are working on ways to make humans and robots work together safely and efficiently making jobs more fun! #TwinklTeach
FAIR-SPACE Hub@FAIR_SPACE_Hub
@twinklresources I think the next generation will play a significant role in embracing robotic technologies and of course developing them as well #TwinklTeach
English
The @NCNRobotics focuses on the actual use of robotics in the real world. We work on taking humans out of dangerous environments. #TwinklTeach
Twinkl Resources@twinklresources
Although this is a very fun competition, it's important to show children the role that robotics plays in the world today and in the future! #TwinklTeach

Robotics week for us is a chance for researchers to engage with the public and showcase our cutting edge robotics developments. One event we will be on 27th June at the Royal Geographical Society #TwinklTeach

@twinklresources @UKRobotics We've previously visited schools to build real robots however, this is the first time so many children can build a virtual robot #TwinklTeach
English
@UKRobotics I'm so excited about this! Nothing like this competition was available when I was at school, such an exciting opportunity! Is this the first year it's been running? ^Claire #TwinklTeach
English
This competition allows children to build a robot and put it in unknown environments, just like we do at NCNR #twinklteach

Hello @UKRobotics we are looking forward to this chat and hope to answer your questions on real robotics! #twinklteach
