1、Designation: F3327 18Standard Practice forRecording the A-UGV Test Configuration1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3327; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in pare

2、ntheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice describes a means to record the A-UGVconfiguration when testing. The practice provides a method forrecording A-UGV hardware and softwar

3、e control parametersand describes high-level capabilities, such as used for A-UGVsafety and navigation.1.2 This practice: contextualizes the A-UGV configurationduring a test, including the identification and adjustment ofmain configuration parameters; provides the proper context fortest results; pro

4、vides a basis for comparison of the testcircumstances across different vehicles or tests, or both; andallows a test to be recreated.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are not precisemathematical conversions to imperial units. They are

5、 closeapproximate equivalents for the purpose of specifying A-UGVcharacteristics while maintaining repeatability and reproduc-ibility of the test method results. These values given inparentheses are provided for information only and are notconsidered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to ad

6、dress all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated 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.1.5 This international standard was dev

Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes a method for recording theA-UGV test configuration when performing tests desc

9、ribed inA-UGV test methods. A-UGVs have a series of hardware andsoftware parameters that vary the vehicle functionality, forexample:4.1.1 Different A-UGVs may perform differently dependentupon their hardware setup and software capabilities andsettings; or4.1.2 The same A-UGV may perform differently

10、dependentupon its hardware setup and software settings.4.2 Main configuration parameters are, for example:4.2.1 Hardware: A-UGV weight, size, wheelbase, drive/steer method, load carry or pull method, sensors, and onboardequipment (for example, roller tables or robot arms); and4.2.2 Software: control

11、 and monitor software, firmwareversions, and software settings for maximum accelerations andvelocities, preferred paths, and restricted areas, among manyother possible hardware and software configuration param-eters.4.3 High level capabilities are, for example: obstacleavoidance, path planning, loca

12、lization method, safety.4.4 This practice also contextualizes test results of a testmethod by identifying main configuration parameters as re-quested prior to the test method. A-UGV configuration isreported using a standard method, defined in this practice,which includes the documentation of the con

13、text for testresults. For example, the result of a timed test could bedependent upon varying speed constraints an A-UGV havinga speed constraint of 1.5 m/s as compared to a speed constraintof 2.0 m/s. As such, comparing two A-UGV configurationscould allude to which parameters affect vehicle performa

Significance and Use5.1 The significance of the information to be recorded in atest report allows forA-UGV performance to be contextualizedwith A-UGV configuration.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F45 on DriverlessAutomatic Guided Industrial Vehicles and is the direc

For example,for capabilities, a vehicle that remaps during navigation versusanother vehicle that uses a static map may behave differently inrepeated runs of an obstacle avoidance test. For configuration,a vehicle that remaps during navigation may have varyingtimes that obstacles

19、 remain in the map for test recreation.5.3 The environment map used by the A-UGV, developedthrough localization including any landmarks, shall be saved asused on the A-UGV and should be saved and provided as ahuman-readable layout on or off theA-UGV (see Appendix X1showing a sample layout drawing).5

20、.4 The main A-UGV hardware parameters shall be re-corded as follows:5.4.1 Make and Model5.4.2 Part Number5.4.3 Serial Number5.4.4 Hardware Revision number (if any)5.4.5 Number of drive/steer wheels5.4.6 Steering type5.4.7 Type: for example, Fork, Tugger, Unit Load, Cart5.4.8 Loaded/Unloaded5.5 The m

22、hresholds.5.6 The context for the test shall be recorded by providingdetailed answers to the following questions:5.6.1 When are the various software configurations usedduring the test? For example, two software versions may berequired as follows: Use configuration A for straight aisles andconfigurat

23、ion B for turns.5.6.2 What other hardware and software parameters/settingsare required to recreate the A-UGV behavior (that is, attacheddebug, settings, or other files)?5.6.3 What is the A-UGV layout that is saved and used onthe vehicle and, if possible, saved and provided as a human-readable versio

24、n?5.6.4 Are there constraints that the requestor has placed onthe A-UGV? Examples may include the following:5.6.4.1 generic test environment: for example, outdoors orindoors, day or night, defined or undefined test areas?5.6.4.2 velocity and acceleration that are below the maxi-mum capability?5.6.4.

29、.2 A-UGV configuration may be changed prior to a test. Atany time after the start of a test, as instructed by the testsupervisor, the A-UGV configuration shall not be manuallychanged by any person. In the event that the A-UGV configu-ration automatically changes during a test, the test requestorshal
