1、Designation: E3132/E3132M 17Standard Practice forEvaluating Response Robot Logistics: SystemConfiguration1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E3132/E3132M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe robotics community needs ways to measure whether a particular robot system is capable ofperforming specific missi

3、ons in unstructured and often hazardous environments. These missionsdecompose into elemental robot tasks that can be represented individually as standard test methodsand practices. The associated test apparatuses and performance metrics provide a tangible language tocommunicate various mission requi

4、rements. They also enable repeatable testing to establish thereliability of robot capabilities.ASTM International Committee E54 on Homeland Security Applications specifies standard testmethods and practices for evaluating such robot capabilities. These standards facilitate comparisonsacross robot mo

5、dels or various configurations of a particular robot model. They support robotresearchers, manufacturers, and user organizations in different ways. Researchers use the standards tounderstand mission requirements, encourage innovations, and demonstrate breakthrough capabilities.Manufacturers use the

6、standards to evaluate design decisions, integrate emerging technologies, andharden systems. User organizations leverage the resulting robot capabilities data to guide purchasingdecisions, align deployment objectives, and focus training with standard measures of operatorproficiency. Associated usage

7、guides describe how such standards can be applied to support thesevarious objectives.The overall suite of the standards addresses robotic critical subsystems, including maneuvering,mobility, dexterity, sensing, energy, communications, durability, proficiency, autonomy, logistics,safety, and terminol

8、ogy. This practice is part of the logistics test suite and addresses the issue ofidentifying robot system configuration.1. Scope1.1 This practice, as a part of the response robot logisticstest suite, specifies the requirements of identifying and docu-menting the configuration of a robot system under

9、 test as wellas the associated processes for doing it. The aspects to beincluded in such a configuration practice are the key dimen-sions and weights, the existent subsystems and keycomponents, as well as the key timing requirements for settingup and maintaining the system.1.2 This practice applies

10、to ground, aerial, and aquaticresponse robot systems controlled remotely by an operatorfrom a standoff distance appropriate for the intended missions.Such robot systems may further possess certain assistivefeatures or autonomous behaviors.1.3 Performing LocationThis practice may be performedanywhere

11、 the specific apparatuses are implemented and envi-ronmental conditions are met.1.4 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system shall be used independently

12、 of the other.Combining values from the two systems may result in noncon-formance with the standard. Both units are referenced tofacilitate acquisition of materials internationally and minimizefabrication costs.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associat

13、ed with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recogn

Terminology3.1 The following terms are used in this practice and aredefined in Terminology E2521: administrator or testadministrator, operator, operator station, response robot oremergency response robot, teleoperation, test event or event,test form, test sponsor, test suite, and trial.3

20、.2 The following terms are used in this practice and aredefined in the ALFUS Framework Volume I: autonomous,autonomy, levels of autonomy, human-robot interaction, opera-tor control unit (OCU), and semi-autonomous.34. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice specifies a way in which a robot systemsconfig

21、uration shall be identified and documented.NOTE 1The resulting information is intended to provide the users,who could be responders, law enforcement officials, and soldiers, a quickand overall perspective of their response robot systems and help themmake decisions on procurement, deployment, or oper

22、ator training.4.2 The particular system configuration to be tested shall becomprehensively identified and uniquely named by using themake, model, and applicable configuration name as providedby the manufacturer. This identification process includes mea-suring the time required to bring the system to

23、 the operationallyready state, called setup time. The process, then, involvesmeasuring and documenting the dimensions and weights of allthe subsystem, components, and as-shipped packaging. Theseinclude the robot, OCU, and other sustainment and mainte-nance items such as power sources and spare parts

24、. Thisidentification process also lists subsystems, payloads, anditems in the field-maintenance kit. These include tools andconsumable items such as duct tape, cable ties, and other items.Documentation shall also include detailed photographs of all ofthe above as well as videos of routine maintenanc

25、e tasks (forexample, battery change). The system configuration shallremain the same for all relevant tests to enable direct compari-son of performance and to identify capability trade-offs be-tween different configurations. Any number of identified sys-tem configurations can be subjected to testing.

26、5. Significance and Use5.1 These basic requirements for response robots that helpenhance the safety and effectiveness of responders or soldiersinclude: the robots are designed to be remotely operated fromsafe standoff distances, deployable at operational tempos,capable of operating in complex enviro

27、nments, sufficientlyhardened against harsh environments, reliable and fieldserviceable, durable or cost-effectively disposable, andequipped with operational safeguards.5.2 This practice aligns user expectations with actual capa-bilities to understand the inherent trade-offs in deployablesystems at a

28、ny given cost. For example, a design issue of thenumber of batteries to be packed on a robot could affect thedesired weight, endurance, or cost. Appropriate levels ofunderstanding can help ensure that requirement specificationsare articulated within the limit of current capabilities.5.3 This practic

29、e provides a tangible representation ofessential robot capabilities with quantifiable measures of per-formance. It facilitates communication among communities ofrobot users and manufacturers. As such, this practice can beused to help:5.3.1 Inspire technical innovation and guide developerstoward impl

30、ementing the combinations of capabilities neces-sary to perform essential mission tasks.5.3.2 Measure and compare essential robot capabilities.This practice can help establish the reliability of the system toperform specified tasks, highlight break-through capabilities,and encourage hardening of dev

31、elopmental systems.5.3.3 Inform purchasing decisions, conduct acceptancetesting, and align deployment objectives with statisticallysignificant robot capabilities data captured through repeatedtesting and comparison of quantitative results.5.3.4 Focus operator training and measure proficiency as arep

The practice can help capture and comparequantitative scores even within uncontrolled environmentalvariables and, in turn, help develop, maintain, measure, andtrack very perishable skills over time and enable comparison

Such walls aretypically made of commercially available oriented strand board(OSB) or perforated hardboards.6.1.1 The walls shall be large enough such that all parts ofthe object being photographed are covered.6.1.2 Photographs shall be taken with a good quality digitalstill came

37、ra. A digital single-lens reflex or mirrorless largesensor camera is highly recommended.6.1.3 To reduce perspective and optical distortion, photo-graphs should be taken with as long a lens (or as “zoomed-in”)as is practical within the confines of the available space.6.1.4 It is recommended that stud

38、io strobe (flash) equipmentbe used to allow smaller apertures (increasing depth of field toensure that the whole robot is in focus), reduce image noise,and provide better image clarity. Lighting should be soft(diffuse) rather than direct. This may be achieved by placingwhite sheeting across the ceil

39、ing and two open sides andpositioning the strobes so that their light is reflected off thesheets rather than directed at the equipment being photo-graphed.6.1.5 As many video cameras as needed shall be used todocument the entireties of the required operations, as specifiedin Section 8.6.2 Commercial

40、ly made weight scales and tape measuresthat are accurate to at least the tenth digit shall be used for themeasurements as specified in Section 8.6.3 Timing devices, such as stopwatches, shall be availableto measure the lengths of time of required operations. Thedocumented time may be verified by obs

41、erving the correspond-ing video(s).7. Hazards7.1 Besides 1.5, which addresses common safety and healthconcerns, users of this practice shall also address equipmentpreservation as well as additional, specific safety concerns. Inaddition, environmental conditions, such as high or low tem-peratures and

42、 excessive moisture may also be stressful andcause damages to robot components or unexpected robotbehaviors.7.2 Identify all the emergency stop button(s) on the robotchassis and the OCU before operating or interacting with therobot.7.3 While the robot is active and the emergency stop buttonis diseng

43、aged, avoid:7.3.1 the areas directly in front of and behind the robot,7.3.2 the reachable radius of the robots manipulator, asequipped, and7.3.3 touching the robot other than to engage the emergencystop button.8. Procedure8.1 Identification Scope:8.1.1 The comprehensive configuration of a robot syst

44、emthat shall be identified and documented includes the robot, itsOCU, and all the applicable subsystems or major components,accessories, and payload.8.1.1.1 Keywords are recommended to be used for thedocumentation purposes. Such a practice facilitates identifica-tion of common characteristics among

45、different robot systemsand helps maintain consistent terminology.NOTE 2For example, the keywords “wheels” and “tracks” should beused as much as applicable to specify the locomotion mechanism.8.1.2 All the manual adjustments and settings available toonboard subsystems or components shall be determine

46、d and setas such and shall remain the same throughout the entire set ofthe identified tests. Any further such adjustment(s) duringtesting constitutes a new testing configuration for the robotsystem.8.1.2.1 Such specific settings and manual adjustment(s) andthe processes of making them shall be docum
