¶ ROBOVOLC autonomous sampling machine
Description: The main objective of this project is the development and trial of an automatic robotic system to explore and perform measurements in a volcanic environment. A major aim of the proposed robot will be that of minimising the risk for volcanologists who are involved in work close to volcanic vents during eruptive phenomena. Observations and measurements of the variables relating to volcanic activity are of greatest interest during paroxismal phases of eruptions, which unfortunately are also the time of greatest risk for humans.
