Robot maintenance surfaces mixed with public operation surfaces

Maintenance ports and public operation entries are adjacent, causing accidental contact and confusion.

Research direction: Embodied AI and service robotsProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Distinguish operation permissions for public, operations, and maintenance roles.
  2. Clearly distinguish each area through its location, opening mechanism and labeling.
  3. Ask people in each role to complete operation and maintenance tasks, then check for confusion.

Key Deliverables

  • Access Zoning
  • Maintenance Layout
  • Role Guidelines

Verification Approach

Record unintended access to maintenance areas, incorrect openings and requests for help.
