ROBODROMO research and testing
How Whole Job robot tests will work
Methodology, not completed test results. Whole Job tests will show the work around a robot task as well as the result. No ROBODROMO physical trial has been completed through this programme.
What a Whole Job test will show
- The exact robot edition, software, control method and conditions.
- The setup, repeated attempts, outcomes and human help, including stopped attempts and failures.
- The time and work needed to reset the robot and get ready to repeat.
- The limits of the evidence, with supporting recordings where available.
Remote operation, handler control and autonomous behaviour will be labelled separately. A practical human comparison will be used only where the tasks and conditions make it useful. Any result will describe the tested setup; a small number of attempts cannot establish universal reliability.
A possible first example
If suitable robot access and safe, permitted conditions are confirmed, one candidate is a Unitree Go2 Pro walking a marked route, stopping at set points and returning ready to repeat. This would be a handler-directed baseline. It would not establish autonomous patrol, unattended operation or general workplace safety. Access and a filming date are not confirmed.
Completed tests will be published with their evidence and limitations. There is no ROBODROMO test score for the proposed example.
