General information

Short Summary: An SME from Türkiye will apply for Eureka TR-Singapore call and seeking partners from Singapore working on payment systems, precision control issues, image processing, robot arm development, or elevator issues.

The project is to develop an software application that can perform tasks such as swarm communication with autonomous robots developed for use in service sectors, and to call and use lifts.
Full Description: The project is to develop an software application that can perform tasks such as swarm communication with autonomous robots developed for use in service sectors, and to call and use lifts. With the sensors to be integrated into the structure of the service robot, it will be a robot structure that can detect its environment, interpret what it perceives, make decisions with intelligent algorithms as a result, and take behaviour according to the decision result. The robot structure will be in communication with other robots and will be able to coordinate and share tasks in a coordinated manner and move as a herd in line with the needs. In addition, it will be able to work integrated with critical systems that allow circulation between floors such as lifts and will be able to use these systems with the help of commands.

Within the scope of our project, by combining the data received from environmental sensors in mobile robots; we will develop multi-robot communication and lift interaction interface software on the concept of collaborative robots with image processing and artificial intelligence algorithms. While the service robots are working autonomously without any humans, they will also be able to transfer information between themselves and other service robots, and by sending information to the host computer in the cloud environment, the operation of the robots can be done in a coordinated manner. At the same time, by solving the flexibility of movement between floors with the elevator interaction interface layer, the range of movement will be expanded. The main innovative aspect of our project is to eliminate the humans factor with robot systems in the delivery processes of products. Thanks to digital transformation in the service sector, traffic congestions caused by motor couriers will be reduced and carbon emissions caused by motor vehicles will decrease. Current delivery methods are a major cause of carbon emissions. The difference of our solution presented within the scope of the project from alternative solutions in the market is that the service robots we will develop will interact with the lifts and move in vertical and horizontal planes. Service robots developed so far move only in the horizontal plane. The robot subject to the project will ride the lifts used by people and work in harmony with them. Thus, it will autonomously deliver the products ordered from the warehouse on the ground floor of the buildings to the end users. Our project idea is a completely new approach and a new idea in terms of interaction with the elevator via a cloud and autonomous mobility in vertical buildings. According to the research, the robot that can use the elevator to be developed with our project will be the first in the world. The beneficiaries of our project output are end users and cities. In the long term, countries are also parties within the scope of Paris Agreement and regulations between countries. Conceptual design studies were carried out for this study. Plans were made for Turkey's highest storey building Skyland. Algorithm designs have been analysed. Sketches were made for the industrial design of the robot that will be interactive with humans. For public sector and urban management authorities, the project contributes to environmental sustainability goals by reducing the carbon footprint in urban logistics processes. For the public sector and urban management authorities, this presents a solution aligned with the objective of minimizing environmental impacts in their cities. Additionally, the data collection capabilities of our project enable better-informed city planning and transportation policies.
Advantages and Innovations: Within the scope of our project, by combining the data received from
environmental sensors in mobile robots; we will develop multi-robot
communication and lift interaction interface software on the concept of
collaborative robots with image processing and artificial intelligence algorithms.
While the service robots are working autonomously without any humans, they will
also be able to transfer information between themselves and other service robots,
