Standard Disaster
Robotics Drone
Challenge
Evaluation of 4 standard abilities in harsh environment
(Maneuverability, Dexterity, Mapping, Autonomy)
Outline
Aiming to promote implementation of drone in harsh environment,
evaluating 4 abilities in the various harsh environment fields abstracting
plants or disaster site.
Robots
- Either remote-controlled or autonomous robots are accepted. Robots must be controlled without being viewed directly by the operator.
- Any mobility type of robots could carry out tasks in the field are allowed.
- Maximum weight 10kg, maximum size at start position within a rectangular prism with the sum of its three orthogonal edge lengths amounting to 1.5 meters.
- Guard devices should be attached to rotary wings (propellers).
- The number of robots is unlimited.
Robot Operator
1 person (operator change during the competition is allowed)
Competition Field
4 abilities are assessed in the 4 fields.
Environment may change in each field.
Competition Time
30 mins (prep 5 mins, task 20 mins, removal from field 5 mins)
Extra points will be awarded for robots with environmental resistance.
Task
Contents of Evaluation
- Mobility (MOB)
- To evaluate the time of 10 round trips in the competition field.
- Detection (DEX)
- To evaluate the degree of task accomplishment.
(See the rule book released later)
- Map Creation (MAP)
- To evaluate the ability of map creation, position estimating and comprehension, and embedding information into the map.
- Autonomy (AUTO)
- To evaluate autonomy of MOB and DEX.
