THE ADE ROVER IS READY TO BE USED IN NUCLEAR SCENARIOS
On March 12, the ADE rover performed a successful test in a nuclear scenario. Although the project’s main focus is a planetary exploration rover it also includes an additional use case geared towards the terrestrial robotics market; this involves an autonomous robotic…
Don´t miss the effect of the Autonomy in Valentín´s day
Testing the ADE system in February at the Robotics Innovation Center in Bremen has some advantages as DFKI´s SherpaTT rover is driving up the harsh snow and crushes through the crust painting a heart into the snow. Happy Valentine’s Day!
ADE project validated a vast on board systems in analogue-field scenario at Bremen
Since November, the ADE team performed the preparatory tests to validate the vast majority of the rover’s onboard systems: as localization, perception, guidance, manipulation of the robotic arm in motion, FDIR, dynamic planning, and scientific agent. The robotic platform used…
SUCCESS IN PRELIMINARY TESTS of ADE AVIONICS AND CAMERAS in NUCLEAR SCENARIO
Last July 16, the ADE team performed a preliminary robotic test campaign at GMV facilities in Tres Cantos, Madrid. ADE will prove in analogues environments two different use cases: a planetary sample catching rover and a terrestrial rover. The goals…
