==Problem statement==
The railways in the Netherlands are very vulnerable for all kinds of things. Think for example of fallen leaves, snow, weeds, dead animals, etc. These factors lead to unwanted delays. This autonomous robot is designed to tackle this problem and prevent delays from happening.
==Objectives==
* The system must be able to navigate through the Dutch railway system autonomously
* The system must be able to recognize the different obstacles on the railway
* The system must be able to clean the railway from obstacles autonomously. For special occasions the system must alert the involved companies
* The system must provide a short-term solution for certain problems
* The system must avoid colliding with obstacles
* The system must be deployable at any time
* The system must not hinder the human operated train traffic
