DESCRIPTION
The issuing organization is seeking an autonomous quadrupedal research platform to support advanced robotics, mobility, autonomy, and applied engineering research. The platform will function as a reconfigurable, sensor-equipped mobile robotics testbed for laboratory, indoor, and outdoor field environments.
The required system should provide adjustable walking and standing clearance for varied terrain and obstacle conditions, along with a four-legged agile configuration offering at least twelve degrees of freedom for dynamic locomotion. It should have ingress protection and environmental tolerances suitable for indoor and outdoor use, including exposure to dust and moisture.
The platform should include integrated cameras and sensors for imagery and research data collection, object tracking and dynamic path adjustment during navigation, and 360-degree stereo vision for environmental perception.
