Fully Autonomous Robot

Requirements

We have identified the following 2 requirements:

  1. No Gaps in between Steps
  2. User Inputs number of Steps

No Gaps in between Steps

In order to achieve an accurate replication of a staircase, the steps needed to be one next to the other. Due to the robot’s end-effector size, the bricks would have never been able to be aligned one next to the other. Therefore, avoiding gaps between the steps was definitely a main objective.

User Inputs number of Steps

Another important feature to make the robot as autonomous as possible was leaving the choice of the number of steps to the user. The robot would have then had to adapt to the request of the user and plan his trajectory accordingly.
