Radioactive shielding is just a bunch of heavy metal. The robot probably has terrible maneuverability and even worse battery life :p

- QAPereo 9y agoThe problem with the "heavy metal" approach is also secondary radiation. Sure, you've protected your package (robot, whatever) from the beta and alpha, but now your metal is re-radiating in the gamma spectrum and practically cooking your goose. Shielding is hard.
