Collaborative Autonomous Logistics

Abstract

This video shows a demonstration of collaborative autonomous logistics. Turtlebot, a 1-g stand-in for Astrobee, carried REALM sensors around a mockup of ISS in ARGOS to autonomously survey for a cargo bag stowed in a drawer. It provided the location of the bag to Robonaut, which then autonomously climbed across the mockup to the drawer. Robonaut then used the Affordance Template manipulation framework to localize and open the drawer and then again localize and retrieve the cargo bag.
