Abstract
Aging infrastructures bring major challenges to electric utilities. Despite important resources invested in maintenance and replacement of assets, transmission networks continue to age. Substations day-to-day operations are consequently facing constraints due to personnel safety and security. Asset management is also becoming increasingly challenging. At the same time, recent advances in terrestrial mobile robotics, embedded computing, sensing and robotic manipulation allows for faster integration of subsystems into new robotic systems, at lower costs. Using robots in electrical substations has been studied and demonstrated by some utilities worldwide. Given this context and within a really short timeframe, a team of researchers at IREQ developed and field demonstrated a robot system that allows personnel to remotely accomplish multi-sensor inspections and live operations on numerous substation equipments. Robotic teleoperation therefore alleviates dangerous conditions for personnel and paves the way for valuable systematic inspection of equipments. The video shows various aspects of the system operated within substations. Index Terms—Substation, inspection, intervention, robot.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
