Development of TIM pre-series and series To provide remote inspections, radiological surveys in the entire LHC tunnel when the machine is not in access mode. Establish a reliable service that is fully automated and fully integrated in the LHC operational procedures and controls software and contributes to the full exploitation of the physics potential of the LHC. 5 Mission: 8 May 2013B.
