Fuente: Wipo "digitalization"
A method includes receiving a request for a robotic fleet to perform a job and defining a set of tasks that are to be performed in performance of the job. The method includes assigning robots selected from a robot inventory to the set of tasks based on a robot inventory data structure that indicates, for each robot, a status and set of baseline features. The robots include one or more assigned multi-purpose robots that can be configured for different tasks and different environments. The method includes determining a configuration for each assigned robot based on the respective task that is assigned and a components inventory. The components inventory indicates multiple components and, for each component, a status and a set of extended capabilities. The method includes configuring the one or more assigned multi-purpose robots based on the respective configurations. The method includes deploying the robotic fleet to perform the job.
