Research Topic 068 / 200
Multiple robots difficult to distinguish quickly
Identical appearance causes task device confusion; on-site dispatch relies on software lists.
Three-step solution method
- Analyze distance, angle, and environment when operations staff identify devices.
- Create a consistent identification system using unit numbers, visible markings and on-screen information.
- Run multi-robot dispatch simulations to test how accurately people locate units and match them to tasks.
Key Deliverables
- Robot Identification Standards
- On-Site Markings
- Dispatch Testing
Verification Approach
Record incorrect robot selections, identification time and information inconsistencies.
