AI总结:

提出通用移动操作系统,在实际杂货店购物场景中进行为期18个月的六周现场测试,通过日志提取客观指标驱动系统改进,证明端到端系统级测试对机器人研究的现实检验价值。

摘要:

我们提出了通用移动操作系统,包含定制机器人平台及涵盖感知与规划的关键算法。为在真实环境中广泛测试系统并基准评估其性能,我们选择在一家实际且未经修改的杂货店中进行购物场景测试。我们从分散于18个月内的六次为期一周的现场测试所收集的详细机器人日志数据中,提取出关键性能指标。这些客观指标源于复杂但可重复的测试,驱动着我们研究努力的方向,并使我们能持续提升系统性能。我们发现,对复杂移动操作系统进行彻底的端到端系统级测试,可作为对机器人领域最先进方法的现实检验。这有效地将机器人研究工作立足于现实世界的需求与挑战,我们认为这对该领域的发展极具价值。为此,我们分享关键见解与经验总结,以启发并加速类似的系统级研究项目。

英文摘要:

We present our general-purpose mobile manipulation system consisting of a custom robot platform and key algorithms spanning perception and planning. To extensively test the system in the wild and benchmark its performance, we choose a grocery shopping scenario in an actual, unmodified grocery store. We derive key performance metrics from detailed robot log data collected during six week-long field tests, spread across 18 months. These objective metrics, gained from complex yet repeatable tests, drive the direction of our research efforts and let us continuously improve our system's performance. We find that thorough end-to-end system-level testing of a complex mobile manipulation system can serve as a reality-check for state-of-the-art methods in robotics. This effectively grounds robotics research efforts in real world needs and challenges, which we deem highly useful for the advancement of the field. To this end, we share our key insights and takeaways to inspire and accelerate similar system-level research projects.
