Robot Inspection

"Robot Inspection" is adapted as one of the tasks in world competition, which is to inspect the safeness. In the task, robots will be tested for minimal performance of basic function (eg. open the door, navigation, etc.) and safety measurements (eg. collision avoidance, emergency stop, etc.). Teams can get scores from this.

NOTICE

Please check the video. This video introduces the inspection task.

Task

1. Detect Door Opening

The robot has to wait at the entrance of the arena until the start of the task. At that time, the door is closed. Once TC opens the door, task begins. The robot has to detect the open of door, and enter the arena autonomously.
