摘要： Apparatus and associated methods relate to automatically loading a plurality of hazardous entities into a hazardous-entity container. Such automatic loading is performed by: i) lifting a selected hazardous entity of a plurality of hazardous entities from a stowed position to an elevation of a corresponding hazardous-entity portal of the hazardous-entity container; ii) sensing relative alignment the selected hazardous entity with respect to the corresponding hazardous-entity portal iii) aligning the selected hazardous entity with the corresponding hazardous-entity portal based on the relative alignment sensed by the alignment sensor; iv) evaluating whether an insertion condition is met based at least in part on the relative alignment sensed by the alignment sensor; and v) inserting the selected hazardous entity into its corresponding hazardous-entity portal if the insertion condition is met.
