About

Peter Green is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, embedded systems, and extreme-environment engineering. His work focuses on developing resilient robotic solutions for hazardous settings, particularly nuclear decommissioning and radioactive waste handling. Green’s most impactful contribution is his investigation into the radiation tolerance of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components, demonstrating that low-cost, accessible hardware can survive radioactive exposure in underground nuclear embedded systems—a finding critical for affordable robotic deployment in decommissioning (15 citations). He has also advanced hexapod robot mobility with grid-based motion planning using “wall and chimney walking” techniques, enabling navigation through narrow, walled spaces (13 citations). Beyond hardware, Green has shaped engineering education through enquiry-based group learning for embedded microprocessor systems, emphasizing teamwork and presentation skills alongside technical mastery (14 citations). His hybrid underwater acoustic and RF localization system, using sensor fusion for enclosed environments, further showcases his versatility. With a career spanning from pedagogical innovation to cutting-edge robotics in nuclear settings, Green’s work directly enables safer, cheaper automation in the world’s most challenging environments.
