This post is the introduction to the AMR-One project series, a set of posts and videos on how to plan, manage and execute a technical project as well as on how to technically develop an autonomous robot.
The AMR-One project objective is to develop a prototype of an autonomous mobile robot for the industry, as a personal project, with some basic characteristics:
- Rotational base with damped traction system
- Safety system
- Pinhook system to hook trolleys from the bottom and carry them.
- Two navigation modes:
- Magnetic band guidance with RFID tags control
- SLAM based navigation using ROS
- Cloud monitoring (over AWS)
High, this is Alejandro Alonso and I will be here, through this interesting trip, where we will explore the details of this fascinating project!
During the following posts I will cover:
- The product strategy, roadmap, and product requirements (basic to have good focus and scope definition).
- The project management aspects, including
- The project management plan (rules on how to manage the project)
- Work breakdown structure (tool to identify the tasks)
- Planning from an agile perspective, including the Gantt and dependency graph as well as backlog and sprints plan
- Risk management,
- Cost and time control
- Change management control, to approach correctly any change in the project
- The technical design, covers:
- The architecture of the system, both hardware, and software
- Electrical design
- Mechanical design
- Software design
- The manufacturing process, using modular structures and a few 3D printed parts
See the following introductory video.
I hope you enjoy this trip with me. Let’s make robots!
