Problem

To keep residential areas clean and neat, lots of tools are used. Most of the tools are operated by humans, but some new tools can do some tasks autonomous. Can't this be done by one autonomous robot? We think the most common tasks can be performed by an autonomous robot.

Problem statement

How can tasks of maintaining residential areas be combined into one (modular) robot?

Objectives

  • The system must have the ability to do tasks, like lawn mowing and trash picking
  • The system must be able to go autonomous to the place, where the task has to be performed
  • The system has to give a warning to the owner in case of technical disorder
  • The system has to ask for help of human if needed

Users and other stakeholders

  • Municipalities: responsible to maintain the residential area
  • Citizens: clean and safe neighborhood
  • People that are maintaining the neighborhood: can focus on other tasks, that currently would not be done
  • Society as a whole
  • Enterprises that specialize in maintenance of public grounds

Project setup

Approach

After reviewing the literature, we will determine the requirements for the robot. Based on these requirements we will design a robot to maintain the sidewalks, which will include a detailed physical design and a design of the software running the robot. We will analyse the effects of the use of the robot on the stakeholders and determine the costs of building, deploying and maintaining the robot. The design process will be iterative and each cycle ends with a prototype, which we will analyse and improve if needed.
