=====Boxy===== ~~NOTOC~~ {{:wiki:rosie_front_small.jpeg?direct&200 |}} Boxy is our new omnidirectional dual-armed robot platform. It is being built around a custom omnidirectional base and KUKA-lightweight LWR-4 arms. It is an upgraded version of [[https://ias.cs.tum.edu/robots/tum-rosie|TUM-Rosie]], which was deployed in the Assistive Kitchen environment of the Intelligent Autonomous Systems Group (http://ias.cs.tum.edu). The main objective of the research performed on- and around the robot is to develop a system with the very high degree of cognition involved. The latter thus envisions a system that can intelligently perceive environments, reason about them, autonomously infer best plausible actions and in the end, also successfully execute them. The robot's hardware include: * KUKA LWR-4+ arms * 2-DOF Pan-Tilt unit from Schunk * Omnidirectional base, using mechanum wheels * DLR-HIT Hands 2 (by Wessling Robotics) * Movable torso * Hokuyo laser scanners * Kinect2 * Force torque sensor on the wrist of the arm (Weiss Robotics KMS40) Following video demonstrates some of the so far developed capabilities: \\ \\
